It looks like you're talking about the Mavs being an over-cap non-tax team, and if so, that trade doesn't work at all.

Also, you prefer both J-Rich and Dragic, but Mavs don't have the minutes to make that work. J-Rich is already uncomfortable in the reduced role/minutes coming off the bench (although not making any waves), so if you're adding Dragic (which would slice his minutes even further), JR really needs to be moved somewhere. Plus, GD/JR is an easy trade match.

That's why I think J-Rich back to MIA would make sense - it's probably a plus for all involved, assuming Dragic wants to be in Dallas.

Of course, that may be a really bad assumption, making all of this moot. GD seems to really like Miami and they seem to like him.

Good catch, I forgot there are 3 levels in Non-Tax trades... I prefer building assets which is why I like using the full MLE without gutting the cupboard to create space... 


I like J-Rich as an expiring contract for a future trade. I would also see bringing in Dragic as move that would eventually allow a trade of Brunson with some salary like Richardson or Powell for the ever elusive starting caliber 2-way wing...
