2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

[BasketballJones41]

Magic winning the lottery is great news for the Mavs. That means Bamba or/and Isaac will become available this summer.

I didn´t even notice how good that Isaac contract is. The last three years are not fully guaranteed according to spotrac. They basically did what the Mavs should have done with Porzingis.

The guarantees are

2022/2023: $16M
2023/2024: $7.6M
2024/2025: $0M

So he could be waived at minimal cost as early as next summer, but if he overcomes the injury problems you have a stud at $17M until 2025.

I’m interested in taking a cheap flyer on Isaac for sure. But right now I’m still in the business of getting Markkanen to Dallas. And if I remember correctly you were on that bandwagon with me this last summer. So what do you think about this latest draft night deal I’ve concocted:

Cavs-Jermai Grant
Mavs-Lauri Markkanen 
Pistons-14+26 Powell/Brown

And then of course we could use the TPE or taxpayer MLE to add another big.
