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

[cow]

His playoff usage last year was basically the same as his current. Not like he is getting more touches. Still has to share the ball with Randle and Barrett. Not to mention that the Mavs gave up DFS, SD and a 1st to add a player that plays a similar score first high usage role.

Agree that he probably wouldn´t have stayed anyway but that´s more about the way the Mavs handled things in the month leading up to free agency.

I'm not sure what the Knick narrative is this year, but the Mavs would never be his team.  He has to at least be in that conversation in New York.  That creates more opportunity for the next contract.  

I was flat out wrong about him multiple times.  Good for him and maybe the Mavs were his team, at least from a locker room and leadership perspective.
