Unfortunately there are far more buyers and the prices are so high Mavs can't add a starter level talent using Johnson and picks. This team is actually starting to look well as it is. Better to save assets for a real move.Absolutely. It´s not like the team situations for Beal or Lavine have really improved and both are still UFA in 2022. If we can pick up 1-2 first round picks now, along with our own 2025 and 2027 picks, I think we can get a deal done in the summer (or the next TDL).
Still, they should do Johnson for Bledsoe and pick trade. That one is just a no brainer to me.
If Lavine says I want to go to the Mavs in the summer of 2022, how can the Bulls turn down 2-4 FRPs. That would be insane.
