I´m pretty sure you can easily re-trade Young. The idea that we don´t need another guard, when our 3rd best PG/SG is either Nembhard, Williams, DAR or Hardy is also crazy.
Kyrie will also be up their in age and needs to be nurtured. Do I need to remind you what happened the last time the Mavs overextended him during the regular season due to the bum Nico trading Luka and Grimes.
Agreed. This is them using the media to negotiate. The Hawks know the Mavs dont want Trae. If so, the trade would be done already.
With Stein and McMahon talking, this is all Mavs leaking this. Are they telling the Hawks to go get something for Trae Young and then come back to us? Are they signaling to other teams they may be getting Trae and they want to re-route him?
