THJ is terrible and these MAVs will be swept by the Clippers

[DanSchwartzgan]

In fact, probably the best offer Phoenix had

Obviously not, because Phoenix chose another offer...

As far as FO criticism. They had to settle for plan F. This can never be called a successful offseason. 

1. Again they bet everything on a star (Kemba), which didn't happen. They lost Warren because of that. Phoenix wanted cap space so there is no way our offer can be considered as better. Even Phoenix is not that stupid to take Lee contract for Warren and be satisfied with a second rounder as compensation. Like if Dallas would be looking for two max slots last summer and (for example) Charlotte offered expiring Biyombo and a second rounder for THJ. It wouldn't help us a bit.
2. When other teams were frantically signing most of available free agents, Mavs almost made a deal with Miami. Almost...
3. As a consolation, Mavs signed a couple of role players, even paid 2 second rounders for one of them and waited like a schoolboy for a date (Green) that never showed up, because she went on a date with the team quaterback. In the meantime, Phoenix gifted Melton and a second rounder to Memphis to take Jackson contract. Many here would like both of them here.

30 million of cap space got us two role players (for a prcie of two second rounders) and a trully nice guy that we don't play anyway. Arguably best offseason moves were Kleber and DFS contracts. Whenever I get remembered about our offseason it pisses me off big time.

No one called it a successful off-season.  That is just a straw man.  You can’t put words in someone’s mouth, obliterate your made up argument and declare you are right. 

Our offer for Warren was the best Phoenix had UNTIL Indy came along.  Sorry if that wasn’t clear.

Edit:  Let’s get back to the origins of the conversation.  SBJ said our genius GM’s “Passed” on Warren.  That simply isn’t true.  Once we establish that, the question becomes whether Dallas should have been willing to do what Indy was willing to do...eat $10mm worth of cap room 10 days before free agency began.  That is really the argument anyone saying we should have gotten Warren is making.  I think you can make good point on both sides of that.  But, you have to do it using what you knew in real time (not with 20-20 hindsight).

We don’t know what Dallas knew or believed the afternoon of the 20th, so it is hard to put ourselves in their shoes.  There was a moment when we were rumored to be front runners for your guy Horford.  If I told you on the 20th there was a shot at Horford, would you still be upset (again in real time) about passing on Warren?
