DAL OFFSEASON: Trade & FA | Mavs "mostly done...but you never know."

[Scott41theMavs]

Am I missing something? Wasnt Conley an after thought this season in Utah?

He had a rough year, but I wouldn't count him out of relevance just yet.

I don't think he's a fit with the Mavs though, because while I believe they need another ball handler/creator, my choice for that wouldn't be such a 'pure' PG type. The Mavs don't need someone to run the team, they need someone who can shoot, drive, finish and make smart passes to complement Luka's game. I think Conley is a little fish out of water in that role.

They also need someone with the quarterbacking ability to run the team in Luka's absence with very good defense. A very rare combination of skills. That's why Jrue gets brought up so much - he's the perfect fit, and there are few players in the league like him. Schroder would be more gettable if the Mavs have overcome their strong aversion.
