2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

[F Gump]

So they STILL haven’t learned their lesson on how to sign big FAs with no space?

Hopefully the Mavs are starting to get it, even if we don't always see it like that. Attracting the stars to want you, and being able to get them on your roster, has always been about the talent you have (on good-to-great contracts), not cap space. Talent-talent-talent.

When you are on top, everyone wants to come.

Mavs had that in 2011 and pissed it all away.

Getting it built back up is so much harder than Cuban imagined. Shortcuts are very hard, next to impossible, and they also wasted a decade without building it back up, waiting for a star before they started. Ugh.
