I guess I'm certifiable then. As good as he's been (biggest leap this year from any Mav and arguably our second best player), I still think his measurables will limit his potential as an every game starter in the NBA. Not that it matters much from a GM perspective, but national media are starting to catch on to how good he's been this season. At this rate, he'll be a sneak popular free agent once he hits the market and if he isn't given the option to start here, he may just look to play elsewhere given that opportunity. I'm just going to throw a popular name out there as a random example, but if JB's the price you need to trade to help you land a player like Collins and as much as it would suck to lose him, that wouldn't be a deal breaker.
On another note, I've really started talking myself into DeRozan. I think he'd add the perfect veteran leadership and I'd prefer what he gives you game in and game out to THJ's inconsistencies. I'd also hope that you cuold convert him into a super six man a few season down the line towards the backside of his prime.
