TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

A thankless job actually. Whoever it is (should be Nico) ears should be ringing after all the hangups.

I think I heard Brian Demaris say in the past when he worked with the Mavs he was given responsibility for certain teams to check in on consistently.   Others had different teams.  No doubt that other teams give that responsibility to the Assistant to the Assistant GM to take Mavs calls

That only path forward you outline, and zero offense to you, is merely spinning our tires in the mud.  Again, I think Luka can easily see the shortcomings of this roster, especially when we match up with the elite teams like the Celtics of Cavs.   He might not like it, but I think at this point he can understand it.  At some point you need to rip the bandage off as the status quo of how the MBT have tried to build around him are surely going to lead to him asking out of this situation.  

The easy solution to bottoming out is trading Dinwiddie.

I don't see it happening, but I do wonder what the market is for Dinwiddie.
