Could he end up being of some use in Dallas? Maybe, Or, maybe he won't even last to the start of the season.
But he wasn't a Mavs target. He was just a throw-in as a cheap random "necessary salary" filler piece tossed in to the Richardson deal, to make it cap-legal, but who could be jettisoned later by Dallas if cap space was needed. Has put up some stats on a tanking, bad team (because someone has to get some stats). That's it.
Moses Brown could also be looked at as a two birds with one stone angle. WCS was out of the league for good reason. Boban's best days are well behind him. They might all be fringe NBA players but at least Brown has upside. Further, I've long advocated for a different pu pu platter of big men so Brown really doesn't change my sentiment much. So keep your "get real" advice to yourself. Please and thank you.
