2019-2020 Mavs Trade Discussion + Salary Chart

[ItsGoTime]

I don't know that OPJ has a long future in Chicago so I think he's gettable. Like I said Mavs get can comparable talent in FA that doesn't cost 20+ mil so I would be surprised if the asking price for OPJ is really high at this point.

What comparable talent that is available in FA can the Mavs get? Once healthy, OPJ is just under all star tier IMO. If he's as gettable as you say, PLEASE Mavs, do everything you can to get him! The price tag for 1 year is dang high, but then he's made his money in the NBA and we can sign him to a reasonable contract that doesn't take into account any youthful growth.

Turner makes no sense bc Turner would have to play the 5 and the Mavs have decided to put KP at the 5 so that they can play 5 out. The Rox are doing this to the extreme with guys all 6'7 and under. The Mavs have the advantage of having KP who plays like a guard at 7'3 but who can also block shots. Turner could exist in this system but only at the 5. So I doubt there's any scenario where Mavs make that kind of move.

Snell I think is a good 3D option. I still think Aminu would be a good move as you still have to guard him on corner 3s. I would be surprised if the Mavs got him bc I think they wouldn't want to add his salary but to me from a talent/fit perspective Aminu for Wright would make sense for both teams.

I disagree on the making no sense part about Turner, however, you're probably right that the Mavs aren't looking to make a move like that. I would be though. The system might need to change a bit (although he is a 3 pt shooter who can improve so he can be a part of a 5 out offense, he just brings dynamics to the game that allows for us to not always do that.) but if RC is as smart as we're all saying, he can roll with those changes and not miss a beat.

I've wanted Snell for a couple years now seeing that he's been available for so little. I also never wanted Aminu to leave, so would welcome him back. For both, the price would have to be pretty low and Aminu's injury would need to be checked out and cleared by our medical staff. It's been 8 months since his surgery on the knee and looks like the long recovery time on that to get back to sports is 3-6 months (per Michigan Medicine from the UofM website uofmhealth.org).
