The Mav’s basketball decision makers continue to display a lack of general IQ. The Jones-Branham trade never made sense. Jones makes $2 million more so they were just pissing money away to begin with. Branham is a young player who’s flashed potential, Jones is a retread. Both will be free agents, but at least Branham is restricted so you have some control over the player. At best, Jones was just a guy who could screw up the tank. This reminds me of the Exum/ Prosper move. It was small but still bafflingly stupid. God help Mav’s fans if this current crew is entrusted to make draft picks and retool the team this offseason. This is the most important offseason in franchise history. The moves made and direction taken will determine the fate of this team for the next six years. The current front office isn’t up to it.
