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

[Kammrath]

If you were to take what he's saying as gospel, the Mavs are going to keep and make their picks, and no one's going to be traded, not even Wright, and JJB will be back.

Reading between the lines I would argue otherwise....he ALWAYS hedges with the status quo but he is a lot more honest about the possibilities than normal in my opinion. 

I personally think we see something on draft night.


NELSON:

No. 18 is definitely a highly coveted pick. And at 31, we feel really good about that one as well. We’re literally in the swing of trying to figure out who goes where, and there’s trade-up and trade-down scenarios. There’s all kind of stuff going on....

We really like the picks. [salesmanship/gamesmanship] Whoever we get at 18 is going to be a good young player in a deep draft. And at 31, we have almost the same optimism of that area as we had with (Jalen) Brunson (the 33rd pick in 2018). It’s a rich top of the second round. So a lot of activity on both of those picks....

If there’s a move that can take us ‘over the top’ into the second round type plateau, then of course we’ll always look at those opportunities.
