2021 FREE AGENCY: Markkanen wants out of CHI | DAL "definitely interested"

[Chicagojk]

I agree the defense would be sub-par... I just don't see who's out there in the market that's gonna elevate this team's defense a whole lot.   Maybe Simmons maybe Wiggins but both of these guys would only come to dallas if we we're unloading KP in a trade.  I'd do it for either one but I'm not sure GSW or PHI want's KP 

If we could trade for one of these players i'd still love the idea of getting DeRozan too 

LUKA
Wiggins
DeRozan 
Maxi 
Moses/ WCS   or

If Derozan was the focus, then I think you would need to target someone like Danny Green to pair with him.  It would be nice if they could use the Powell salary to either free up space or get another 4ish type.

Your closing lineups would be Luka, Derozan, DFS, Green and KP.    Green guards the best guard.   DFS guards the best wing scorer.  Luka probably guards the more physical PF type.  It would really help if KP became a solid D player again.   

Then you have Maxi, Green, Brunson, WCS, and maybe one more player with either Powell clearing space or getting via trade.  

I think that team is good.
