Sign DeMarcus Cousins thread

[Reunion Mav Old]

This would be the perfect time to do some Cousins tire kicking. Granted if he plays well he will just go to a other team who isn't the Mavs next year. I would love to see what he can do. Rick is good at maximizing the effectiveness of his players.

I hope we don't sign anyone, we are not in an all in stage yet. Just go with the 15 + 2 guys we had in February and determine what we have. I certainly don't see anyone jumping into 8-9 man regular playoff rotation: Luka, KP, THJ, Curry, DFS, Maxi, Wright and WCS+Bobi with Lee, Barea and perhaps MKG as "per need" specialists. I doubt anyone else will see serious playoff minutes.

I'll keep pointing this out until proven wrong, but I suspect Lee is going to play a much bigger role than people expect...possibly even start.  I think Curry will be the first man off the bench.  Given our thinness at Big, I don't think Maxi starts.  That brings it down to Lee or Wright.  I suspect Wright is the bench wing and Lee starts (but doesn't get starter minutes).  Curry or Maxi probably close depending on the match-up and whether we are leading or trailing.

I agree with you Dan. Lee in short minutes does have a late season/playoff role on this team. However, if Rick thinks he can use Boogie against Herrell as a defender, rebounder 3rd option off the bench, then I would be for it especially if we face the Clippers. The odds are we will face them. Of course, we would do due diligence. Boogie may not really even be available.
