The cap room becomes more enticing when you think about Jokic becoming a free agent in 23-24. But if Luka can convince him to come to Dallas I think you can force it through by sign and trade anyway.

I guess I was just ready to call out the FO a bit. I'm glad to be done with KP but the reality of how terrible Bertans contract is is starting to set in and make me pretty irritated with Cuban.

Let's talk about this. Here are list of players for comparison. It has their salaries starting with next year to the end of the current contract. Bertans (just turned 29 years old, career 40.0% three point shooter) $16M, $17M, $16M ($5M guaranteed, player option) THJ (about to turn 30 years old, career 35.8% three point shooter) $19.6M, $17.9M, $16.2M Duncan Robinson (about to turn 28 years old, career 40.8% three point shooter) $16.9M, $18.1M, $19.4M, $19.9M Buddy Hield (just turned 29 years old, career 40.0% three point shooter) $20.5M, $18.6M RE: ROSTER TALK: $10.87M TPE | Mavs roster "set", will likely not pursue Dragic - KillerLeft - 02-11-2022 (02-11-2022, 08:39 PM)Kammrath Wrote: Let's talk about this. Yeah, I guess the assumption is that he has fallen out of favor in Washington because he's sooooo bad defensively that he's almost unplayable. And, that these days he's not even a good shooter anymore. If that's all true, the deal is plenty bad - worse than the others you highlight there, for sure. All those dudes are rotation players when healthy. But, if you and @"DanSchwartzgan" are right, and the guy is capable of decent team defense and about to start splashing corner 3's again, I agree that the deal is not nearly the albatross it's being made out to be. Regarding the shooting, many people around here got really mad at me once for comparing THJ to this guy as a shooter. I can't remember who it was, but somebody I respect told me he had an even quicker release, better relocation skills, etc. Basically, that he was in an entirely different class of shooting specialist. It's a wait and see thing for me. RE: ROSTER TALK: $10.87M TPE | Mavs roster "set", will likely not pursue Dragic - Winter - 02-11-2022 Bertans is really going to do what Kleber does... find a spot in the corner and shoot 3's. He's not going to do what THJ does. He's not going to play 30 mpg either. But he very likely will be useful. All this talk about how bad his contract is doesn't really matter much in terms of the team play. Every player with a bad contract can be traded and every team has bad contracts. Dinwiddie may be another matter. As a PG he will have to play quarterback, limit turnovers, and least score some. I cross my fingers on his play more than Bertans.

I think the Mavs will try to get him integrated with simple spot ups in the corner. But I can easily see him doing what Bullock does at times once he is integrated.

He's not going to do what THJ does. I get what you mean by this, and you might be right. However, when Bertans got that deal, he was doing WAY more than Kleber does, as you put it. Kleber still, to this day, has a very slow release. It has gotten faster, but it's still a pretty labored, 1950's style set shot, pretty much. He is a wide open shooter only. Bertans used to the be the kind of guy you can run around to create shot opportunities, with several possible spots in mind in some actions. That's how he got that deal, and how all of the players @"Kammrath" listed got theirs, too. To get paid as only a shooter, you have to do more than just hit percentage bench marks. If you're right and he only stands in the corner, but shoots as well as Kleber, percentage wise, the deal will still be pretty bad, but he'll be a useful player, as you say. My guess is that the Mavs think (hope?) he can get back to being more of a flame thrower. I have no idea who's right, of course, and I haven't really watched him during this period when everyone has decided he's awful.

You're right, but I wasn't actually trying to compare the player's skills as much as I was thinking about how Kidd (and even Carlisle) would likely use him at the outset in their respective systems. I have no idea how Washington has been dictating their offense based on "floor-spacing" for the bigs, but we have been giving that a lot of discussion for years it seems like. RE: ROSTER TALK: $10.87M TPE | Mavs roster "set", will likely not pursue Dragic - Branduil - 02-11-2022 Two trades I could see happening next year: THJ + 22 1st for Brogdon Two guys who have a strong connection to the other team's coach: THJ had his best years under Carlisle, Brogdon won ROTY under Kidd. Indiana needs shooters, and Brogdon has struggled with injuries. But if he can stay healthy, he gives the Mavs another two-way player and playmaker on offense. Maxi for Holmes Holmes did not re-sign with SacTown to be a backup during his prime, but he's not a great fit next to Sabonis. Maxi can be both backup and second big for them. Mavs would get a starting center with rebounding, shot-blocking, and scoring ability.

No need for THJ.

I have no idea how Kidd/Korsokov will do it ("watch Kleber" is probably a good start, as you say). But, I feel pretty confident that Carlisle would've thought of ways to use his relocation skills in advantageous ways. What makes you think differently, just his position?

And then tell us who has the least skillset amongst those players. Don´t get me wrong. Seth is a great shooter. Probably would beat all of them in the 3-point contest. And he also has development a nice midrange/floater game. But I don´t think he is as willing of a shooter as the mentioned names. For better or worse those guys will take 7-10 3s per game if they get starter minutes. They aren´t hesitating. When Seth played for the Mavs I wanted him to shoot more. Coaches mentioned the same. But it never happened. |
