Why Mavs value him is because it moves Maxi to back up 4 where he may not break down and PJ is a very similar player that is much younger, and eventual replacement. Also, the depth of Dinwiddie-Green-Bullock-Maxi-DP is what eventually allows you to make a Brunson+Maxi+Bullock+multiple FRP for say… Lillard, at the TDL? Now I’ve gone off the deep end with it all but in all seriousness I’d love to add PJ and Holmes, who are younger - better versions of Maxi and DP.This is great! I’d love to have that lineup too. The issue is with how you get there. If Holmes and PJ are upgrades to Maxi and Powell, what are you willing to give up to get them, cause I’m pretty sure the teams they’re on now know the on court value those players bring, and they are not in the gift giving business.
That is what I call surrounding Luka with the right kind of players and being a deep TEAM.
Are you willing to do Maxi for Holmes straight up? What if it takes more to beat other offers? How high are you willing to go in order to put your starting lineup vision together?
