2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

Agree. I do think Turner is a better player but as long as KP is on the roster the Mavs have no need for another high minutes big. Losing DFS would create a giant hole in the rotation. DFS himself barely qualifies as a big wing. THJ, Bullock and Green don´t have the size to defend big wings. Mavs don´t need a throwback to the Wes Matthews vs KD matchups. They actually should look for another big wing and reduce DFS workload.

Agree with all of this, including the first part.  If Turner is the better player and DFS is a rental, why would Indy do this?  I have always felt that DFS is more valuable to this team than he would be to most others, and he is the kind of player that tends to be undervalued in trades and free agency.  That suggests it is very unlikely will be able to get his true value back in a trade.
