I think Maxi is perhaps worth a (very) late first rounder to a contender.
JB and DFS are both expiring, so their value is tricky. Can you extend them next season? Do you even want to extend them (luxury tax)? Can the other team extend them? I think both are worth a FRP from a contender, but not much more.
I am not sure why would they do that, unless they are certain both are walking in the summer for whatever reason. I think it is not very likely those picks can produce better players. Of course if you have another trade lined up where those picks are needed, that is a different story.
A few reasons. 1. I'm w/KL in the belief that Cuban will not pay the LT next year. 2. At what age do superstar players win titles - Luka is 22. 3. New GM/Coach will want their own players. 4. We have had this same team now for 3-1/2 seasons and we are a .500 w/ill-fitting parts.
So, let's take a few steps back, add some picks, lower the salary cap and get some new blood in here that fits better w/Luka. I can only hope that our new OJT GM has this same thought.
