TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

[KillerLeft]

That would be a massive tax bill, so hard to imagine they would do it.  You have Powell in the center rotation, but he is outgoing for Collins in this example.  You would still want to send out Timmy plus picks to get a two way player that can distribute the ball as that team needs more defense (especially starting) and playmaking.

Yeah, I didn't think through the specifics much. The whole idea is probably pie-in-the-sky anyway, but event in the even it would actually be possible, I'm sure you're right that some of those names would be gone. 

I just think that Wood/Collins could play together, really. That's all. 

And again, I'd love your idea of moving Wood for Collins to platoon with Powell at CENTER. I don't love the idea of acquiring Collins to play the 4, especially if Wood is outgoing, and that's what I expect will be in the Mavs' heads should this happen - "let's try this again, only with Collins instead of Wood." I wouldn't expect the results to be much different. Spacing and foot speed need to get higher on their priorities list quick fast and in a hurry, I think, because that's how they gained so much momentum over the past few years.

I hope I'm articulating this well enough.
