Reminder, the Mavs won't have cap space next summer nor the summer after that, even if Brunson is gone.
How are the Mavs bringing "star" players to Dallas again? Mavs couldn't get it done when they actually had cap space. What makes you think they'll definitely get stars when they don't have any space at all?
Will teams send their stars for old Dinwiddie, THJ, and late 1st rounders? Doubt that is the best offer.
And we're not even taking into account Christian Wood might still need to be re-signed. How much do you pay him? Could be the Brunson conversation all over again.
"Is Wood worth $25M+ AAV? I know he averaged 18/10 during the season and we just lost in the 1st round, but is he really a #2 guy?"
If Wood is not "worth" re-signing AND Brunson walks, the Mavs have bigger problems.
The Big 3 mindset has really poisoned a lot of fans' minds. Too many think we need multiple superstars or you have no chance to win a championship.
