Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[RasheedsBigWhiteSpot]

People STOP with the INSANE Poetl trades. They're so shortsighted. Everyone lamented how awful it would be to have to extend AD and how he would hamstring the team for years to come. And now people want take on a worse version of AD for a late 1st???

You need to appreciate that the Mavs have put themselves into PEAK position to build around Cooper with the cap flexibility. Don't be so quick to give it away like money burning a hole in your pocket.

If the Mavs are taking on a bottom 5 contract in the league, that team is going to pay through the nose!!!!!

Edit: at the very least, if I'm taking on looooong term money in this new CBA, it at least needs to be a player under 25.  For example, let's say the Magic still had 1sts. I could be talked into a Suggs, Wagner or Banchero IF 1sts were attached. But FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT'S HOLY...I'm not paying Poertl almost $30 million a year until he's 35 just so I can have an extra draft dart throw!!!

Edit #2: I could be talked in someone like Quickley if #19, a 2027 unprotected 1st and a 2028 swap are included. No interest in Dick (no h---).
