Crowder

I think Mavs really need another big wing. Last year they were lucky as Utah and Phoenix both had big wings that Mavs were able to hide Luka on (O'Neal, Crowder/Bridges). Things could be much more difficult against teams with big wings as Mavs have only Maxi to fight LeBrons and Kawhis of the world and I am not really sure he is up to the job in the first place.

I agree, the problem is the starting role, as realistically the only way to get it is to push Bullock to the bench and feature Luka-SD-DFS-Crowder-McGee. Bullock would then take more or less all non SD and non DFS minutes, while Green and FN would fight for non Luka minutes. No idea where THJ minutes would come from...

Miami is a team that would kill for Crowder as they have a huge PF hole and I see them creating something with Robinson going to a third team. Something in the light of Robinson to Detroit, Burks to Phoenix and Crowder to Miami (fill in missing salaries and draft compensation). SA with McDermott or Richardson is another option, Orlando with Ross, or Houston with Eric Gordon, which I have read CP3 would really like to see in Phoenix.
