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

[Mavs2019]

Something definitely not adding up here. Maybe a miscommunication about Barea coming back as a player?

It makes zero sense that the Mavs added another 6'6 wing/guard.

That is, unless they're planning on getting rid of a wing/guard. JRich isn't one. Neither does Johnson make sense. That leaves THJ, Brunson, and DFS....

 
Unless the Mavs finally realized that one can never have enough 3&D wings. I actually like it. Add multiple 3&D guys and see if one of them can earn a bigger role. I obviously thought of different names but if the Mavs think that Iwundu can be that guy that´s great.

You also need some bigs.

We don´t know, when Porzingis will be available and even so, he´ll he restricted in minutes and games. Powell is a complete unknown. If he has lost most of his athletism, he´s virtually useless. Boban is a situational player. That leaves Johnson, DFS and Kleber as our healthy PF/C rotation.

They need another big. Might be as simple as releasing Boban, though I think they value his off-court contributions more than his on-court contributions and want to keep him for that very reason.
