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

[jesusshuttlesworth82]

Well, it's not over yet. 

Might be 100% made up.

Might be a done deal, but contingent on a certain player being there at 18.

...and anything in between.

I'm hoping with you @"Kammrath"

   Dinwiddie is more like a 6'6" JJB.

Bingo.  Was gonna post the same thing.

A 6'6" JJB????

A player that big who has mastered the pick and roll game to the extent Barea has would be a GREAT get, imo. 

You guys are both vouching for this comp?

Yes, he's a great pick and roll player that can create havoc with his penetration and can finish at the rim.

Barea was great here playing with Dirk but failed in his stint in MIN.  His outside shot wasn't consistent/good enough and he was a bad defender.  I think Dinwiddie could really run the offense pick and rolling with KP when Luka got rest.  

The defense and 3pt shot are real question marks.  3 and D is the #1 commodity in the NBA but Mavs also really seem to want another shot creator on the team.  Ideally, the same guy can do both like 2017 Oladipo but there aren't many of those guys available.

There's such a premium on picks this year a smart GM would use this opportunity to dump Powell.

If it takes a 1st round pick #30 to dump Kanter's 1yr/$5 million contract...

Powell has a 3yr/$33 million contract coming off an achilles tear.  That's like way way way worse than the Kanter contract.  Powell is not going anywhere anytime soon.  You can bank on that.
