1) KP is gone!!!!!!!!!! (Some are saddened by this, but I am "WOOOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!")
2) That's all they could get for him???? (I believe yes, but that might be because of my opinion on #1).
3) These new guys are not exciting at all and bring new problems, not solutions (some are trying to argue this - I'm not one of them. I'm concerned. But, I think I'm cautiously hopeful that they're right about it, probably because of my takes on 1 and 2 shading me towards relief and my diehard Mavs fandom shading me towards hope).
1 - Right there with you, I can't agree with you more.
2 - I feel over the course of Nico's tenure, there was a possibility of more, all speculation, and I was always going to be upset with the return seeing now what he did return, there's just been so many waa-waa-waa-waaaaaaaaaaaa moments in the last 10 years, I'm SO freakin ready for the once-in-a-while good news report (it doesn't have to be 2018 draft-like good news either, just something going in our favor. This is also explained in my post in Mavs News.
3 - Man, I just want more talent on this team.
