RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - Scott41theMavs - 06-12-2021 (06-12-2021, 08:31 PM)RedFlag41 Wrote: What do you guys think of this trade idea: I'm on board with everything except the THJ overpay. You have to bring him back in your scenario because we would otherwise have no other offense but Luka and JB, but not at that price. I still believe no other team will offer him that much. Match what anyone else is willing to pay him, which will be less, in any scenario where we have the room and his offense is needed. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - StepBackJay - 06-12-2021 OKC loves Dort, they are not giving you Dort in any kind of KP package. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - Aussiebballer - 06-12-2021 Mavs aren’t giving up assets to get Rubio they may take him for free but not even sure about that. Yes he is an excellent passer but he is terrible at shooting. Like one of the worst guards in the league at shooting. Many better options before the Mavs would even consider Rubio. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - RedFlag41 - 06-12-2021 Well, I think Rubio can improve as a shooter in Dallas. And, he has had games where he shot the three ball well. But, you really get him for his defense and ability to handle the ball when Luka is not and not turn it over unlike JRich. He is a legit floor general that can run the offense efficiently whenever Luka is not on the floor.

Sounds to me like someone is not prepared. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - Branduil - 06-12-2021 Rubio has never been a good shooter for his entire career, that's not changing now. That said, I'd be okay with trading for him as Luka's backup if all it took was Powell+Burke. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - RedFlag41 - 06-12-2021 Any Mavs fan will love a Rubio for Powell and Burke trade but the thing is, you have to also look st it from the other side. Why will they trade Rubio for Powell and Burke. They have plenty of scoring guards. Powell is overpaid. At least, I can see them having a motivation to agree to trading Rubio for young players with potential. And, I can see them having a role for JRich there as 2/3 back up with good defense. But, I get that many are not that high on Rubio. I am just thinking of ways of improving the Mavs defense and other issues. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - Aussiebballer - 06-13-2021 We are talking about trading for Rubio. If they can’t come up with a better trade option then Rubio, Dallas are screwed. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - RedFlag41 - 06-13-2021 New trade ideas: 1. Trade Powell and JRich for Jerami Grant, 2. Sign and Trade THJ for Zach Lavine, 3. Trade KP for KAT, 4. Sign Kyle Lowry for MLE Potential Starting 5: PG Luka SG Lavine SF Grant PF DFS C KAT Sixth Man: Lowry RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - Mapka - 06-13-2021 (06-13-2021, 05:41 AM)RedFlag41 Wrote: New trade ideas: Is it sane to not like 1 & 3 (if trading KAT away is not a option). And I'd love to keep THJ lol. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - Chicagojk - 06-13-2021 (06-13-2021, 05:41 AM)RedFlag41 Wrote: New trade ideas: I like it. Although I assume you think Kawhi Leonard re-signs because he would be my first choice at the MLE. Would be a good sixth man too. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - RedFlag41 - 06-13-2021 Kawhi Leonard is on the decline. Won't waste the MLE on him.

He is a legit floor general that can run the offense efficiently whenever Luka is not on the floor. I don't think Rubio would be a bad idea depending on other moves. Wolves will want some cap relief but won't require assets. Rubios shooting is not a problem because he would be running the bench. We need someone to relieve Doncic when he is sitting. Rubio helped the Sun's even as a starter because they had shooting. It would be the same case in Dallas. If I could get Rubio I would be thrilled. We need someone who can throw a g-damn entry pass to our bigs. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - omahen - 06-13-2021 Assuming THJ and KP stay, this is the list of players that will make me say the offseason was ok, let's say a B-. I can see any of them making our team better and raising the ceiling. Plus rMLE and BaE of course. CP3, Lowry, Conley, DeRozan, Collins, Ball, Graham, Robinson Following guys are something I would call a meh option, but still satisfied. Grade C Markkanen, Holmes, Allen, Robinson, Trent Anything else I give a bad grade, unless there are two solid players coming (while keeping THJ and KP), for example OPJ and THT. Although I don't think we can utilize so many palyers, taking into account another two for rMLE and BaE. There are a million possible non THJ or non KP or non both options, so impossible to give anything in advance.

If we’re keeping THJ, don’t we also have to figure out a way to work over the cap to get the full MLE? I think that has to be the case otherwise the score can be no better than C+.

RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL with $22.7M - $34.4M in capspace | FA starts Aug 2, 5 pm - Hypermav - 06-13-2021 I give an F for rating the offseason before the offseason. BTW if the Luka is not on the team in 5 years, I give an F for that offseason. If we don't win a title in the next 5 years, I give an F. I give this post an F. |
