BRUNSON BURNER: to NYK for 4yrs/$104M (no SnT) | NYK docked 2025 2nd for tampering

Nah we're fine. JB was criminally overrated around here. Played like shit next to Luka after he returned from injury. Super inefficient and atrocious on defense. Luka not being suspended for his 16th tech cost us this trade piece. He got to go off like Reggie Jackson did without Kawhi against a trash Utah team with a long history of playoff failure.

Yeah. I always liked JB but he is massively overrated. GS abused him in that series. If Dallas could somehow get GPII away from them that would be a huge upgrade. Mavs blew this one by not locking him up on a cheaper deal or trading him when they could.

JB is going to be exposed with the Knicks. He's not a $100 million dollar player. His best comparison in my eyes is Derrick Fisher. Again, not a $100 million dollar player.

Mavs need guys who know their roles. Not ones who want bigger roles than they have. (and should have)

And it's what I had a feeling it was. According to Shams: Brunson informed the Dallas Mavericks of his plans. The Mavericks were never given a chance to make an offer to Brunson.
