If you take on the Poetl and Quickley contracts, you might get one 1st for AD. That's the market right now.
Well, as we've documented often, there was never an offer of any kind from ATL because they couldn't make an offer before unloading Young, and then AD got hurt literally the next day, I think.
But, if you believe there was ever any interest in AD from ATL, and I do, and you believe they want to avoid paying tax, which I do, then it's pretty obvious that all involved understood Risacher was going to be part of that deal, should it eventually happen. That's a pretty safe assumption, I think.
You have recently been coping with the pitiful situation of this Mavs season by attempting to spread doom and gloom, and not only do I think it's overboard, I don't think it's even needed to make your point. The reality of the situation is gloomy enough without us stating things we don't know as facts designed to make the outlook as dark and hopeless as possible. It's pretty dark at the moment without any help.
I even said I expected to be disappointed. Not sure why a little hope bothers you so much. I'm going to try to have fun with my Mavs fandom, which I admit is difficult at the moment, but I'm not sure what good could possibly come from spending free time on a message board for a team I hate trying to make those attempting not to hate them feel stupid.
