Just saying that the Mavs would've almost have had to go to 30+ mil in order to keep Brunson, not 26 that he got from NYK.
Brunson wanted the Mavs to beat the Knicks offer. They refused.
Be realistic, is Brunson a 30 mil a year player EVER? No. Thus keeping Brunson was never a realistic possibility. I never thought he would've been so money driven and was totally for resigning Brunson to a deal that even crossed 5/125-130. Then I sobered up and remembered that Brunson got outplayed in the Warriors and for half of that PHX series.
