3/$130 wtf

That is mind blowing

[HoosierDaddyKid]

FVV to Rockets for 3/130 max deal.

[Jym]

I'd rather have Kyrie

FVV shot under 40% last year

FVV got another year from Houston, great deal for him

Mavs need starters, not role players

Haha well we need something regardless. Nothing isn't helping.

[Chicagojk]

That is a lot of money for Fred. But Houston was probably worried that no one was taking their money.

Nice evening for the Lakers. Should be a deep team again if everyone can stay healthy.

FVV has a more talented supporting cast. Might take awhile, but Houston is going to be good.

[BigDirk41]

I consider lower end starters to be role players, but high end role players. That's just me though.

If we have MLE and BAE, we also have almost $17mm under the tax.  I think some full MLE person is unlikely.  More likely, we split $17mm somehow with part of MLE going to a player and Powell resigning for the rest of that.  

Before that though, we probably have a trade to make and we need to see the salary matching details of that first.

[Chicagojk]

So either Brooks or Lopez for the rest in Houston right? I assume it will be Brooks. But if Lopez goes there that may leave limited options for Brooks. I don’t think I would be crazy about him. But we will see.

That is really discouraging if true. Powell needs to leave unless he's cheap.

[Branduil]

Anything above the vet minimum for Powell at this point is a deranged overpay. He's been overpaid for like 6 years and he still needs part of the MLE?

[Chicagojk]

40-50 million for Thybulle seems like a lot, right?

So what is Orlando’s plans? They need to move someone right?

[Jason Terry]

I think we’re in on Grant Williams for over the MLE

Great deal on Kyrie

Solid start

[HoosierDaddyKid]

Lakers have got deeper as well. Pelinka is doing work.

How so?  I think that is what we will need to do.  Grant is over a 12 million player.   I am just not sure how we get there and it is something Boston would be ok with.

[omahen]

Lakers have got deeper as well. Pelinka is doing work.

Lakers out: Beasley, Bamba, Brown
Lakers in: Reddish, Vincent, Prince
Lakers still to resign: Schroeder, Walker (both likely gone), DLo, Reaves

I don't think they are that much deeper as they were.

[cow]

If we end up with a roster spot, I wouldn't mind kicking the Bamba tire.

That´s glass half full. And I think combined with the draft it´s fair to give them the benefit of the doubt.
But just looking at the cold hard facts as of now the Mavs haven´t added a single win-now impact player and the list of available options isn´t long. At this point it almost has to be a trade.
