2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

[Winter]

Cuban stated a few years back that it was his job to "create revenue" so the Mavs could successfully compete, but, since 2011 he's been in a "penny-pinching" mode, made even harder with no "Dirk discounts."

My take is that he's been judicious about when and how he handles salary. Now that he has a very real contender, I expect him to go full-out. If he doesn't, I'll change my tune. But this is the moment where you dive head first over the tax line.

I suppose it's possible Brunson decides to leave, but it doesn't change the need to go over the tax line if it truly adds weight to your roster.

I'm eager to see what he's going to do.
