TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

Yes, I did.  It doesn't change the fact that he has one of the worst contracts in the league.  The fad of paying one dimensional shooters in 16-20m range is over.   Teams are trying to correct those mistakes which is why the Nets are trying to dump Harris and why the Heat are trying to dump Robinson and why the Mavs are listening to offers for THJ not to mention they'd love to dump Bertans.   These types of players are probably only worth half of what they are making now, if that.  

Bertans also moves better than THJ without the ball and has a quicker release.  Look how much he is utilized here.  Trade Bertans for Robinson and that FRP and I'll think about it.

Hate on THJ at any given opportunity in gamethreads. But when we are discussing trades we should expect a positive return instead of looking at realistic options. Reality is that the Mavs can exchange bad contracts or pay compensation to get rid of him.
If you aren´t interested in those options maybe THJ isn´t as bad as you think...
