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

[michaeltex]

NOT FOR #18. 

Honestly, is there ANY version of a Lou Williams trade that doesn't hurt a little? 

I mean, Wright works, straight up, and I'd be thrilled with that. But I kind of doubt that's the deal. 

Wright/#18 would suck, and imo, the possibilities go downhill from there.

Is Lou a starter here? He's been a top 6th man candidate for a few years now. Is he interested in staying in that role or taking the wheel on his own team? IMO, he's been content in LAC because he's a core player deeply associated with that team who fills a leadership role. He, Beverley and Harrell are part of their finishing rotation and get praised for being such. Anywhere else he'd have to re-define his role.

I know trades are part of the business, but I just wonder how happy he'd be here and if he would just take off for starter's pay after a year. If so, not worth limited assets, although I would take a shot for just a swap with Wright.
