DRAFT: #18 [Green] & #31 [Terry] & trade for #36 [Tyler Bey]

[Scott41theMavs]

@"Kammrath", here's a draft tie in on the above:

Dan and I are now BOTH pretty convinced that the Dallas role in that Chris Paul deal is to take back Rubio. I'm still skeptical that they have a chance at #10, but he's holding out hope. And, I can much more easily swallow the fairy tale of them getting #10 if they're doing the service of taking Rubio's guaranteed years.

So, for a second, let's say it's Rubio/#10, not just Rubio, with DFS/Wright going out (and probably both picks).

Imo, that would put an end to the Killian Hayes talk. I would think DFS going out means another player like that coming in, especially if it's Rubio and not Oubre. At #10, that means Vassell or SBey, right?

Now, consider that SBey seems to be the dude most concerned with keeping which teams he has worked out for confidential. Does that remind you of how anyone does business?

IF the Mavs are involved in the Paul trade when it goes down, my predictions are:

1) Rubio only
2) Rubio/SBey (but I'd hope for Vassell)

I would want not only Hayes or Vassell, but Haliburton - and Avdija - and Okoro - and Terry - and Smith - before S. Bey.
