2020-2021 ROSTER TALK: Archived

That would have more to do with Mavs flaws in roster construction circumventing THJ's value.  The smart front offices value THJ because he's extremely good at an extremely coveted and rare skillset, and he will be appreciated and paid accordingly by some smart front office.   It's also a skillset that the Mavs actually need more of rather than less of.   I would also caution that depleting our offense down to a mediocre unit in order to field a mediocre defense won't get us where we'll want to go, which is precisely why the JRich for Curry swap hasn't worked.

I am ab 90% sure THJ is staying unless he has a terrible playoff run. Miami could steal him if they made him their primary target but they aren't going to do that. Miami has their sights set on Lowry. I am not sure where THJ is on the list but like they could be putting together a package for Beal or something like that. I just don't see them as a big threat to THJ honestly.

For Mavs they have cap space to sign THJ and still sign another impact player or stay over the cap and just add like an MLE-level rotation filler (Dragic or Theis for example).
