TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

[omahen]

No discussion by Pincus of what sort of FRP he is thinking it would take, but FRP values are "negotiable" to some degree -- where the pick might be protected to a point, AND with the further possibility that some protection clauses, if triggered, roll a FRP into a second rounder.

Reports (I think it was Stein) said Detroit wants unprotected FRP for Bogi. They are reluctant to sell and half the league is hoping the price will go down.

As in LeVert case - Bogi is good player but he doesn't make Mavs a contender, so I would not do it, as he would limit flexibility in the summer. Plus his value will just decrease with each season due to his age. 

If they really have to do it, I hope the pick is 2028. This would still leave them 2024, 2026 and 2030 to trade in the summer. 

btw.: I read an interview with Doncics dad yesterday (Slovenian media). He says he thinks Mavs have good enough team for the title as it is. I hope this is not really what he (and his son) thinks
