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

[JamesConway]

If they are done, there is no Barea or they will do something really stupid

I really doubt they bring back Barea.

I can't imagine the Mavs trade 2 role players to just try and sign Barea.

Brunson is a toughie. He´ll be an UFA in 2022, non-guaranteed 2021. No doubt in my mind that he wants a shot to run his own team. He has shown enough to suggest somebody will give him such an opportunity (to compete for it) in 2022. It will never happen here, so you have to consider whether you prefer losing him for nothing, while he outperforms his rookie contract for the next two years or whether you can use him as a trade vehicle.

The Brunson-thing will be fascinating to watch. Even more now that Seth & Delon are off the team. He will most certainly have a bigger role than he had throughout his first two seasons.
