ROSTER TALK: Mavs favs for Vogel if no HC job exists. Kyrie handshake deal?

That Bertans deal sticks out like a sore thumb yeeesh.
My first inclination would be to find a way to turn him into any useable win under 20 mil a year, but it's hard to find a deal that makes sense.
14x All-Star, 12x all-NBA, 1x MVP, 1x Finals MVP, 1 NBA Championship: Dirk Nowitzki, the man, the myth, the legend.

When is Maxi supposed to be back? His health, with the current roster construction, is vital to the overall success of the team.
Kyrie + Luka + Wood give you all the offense you want Maxi and Green are real NBA defenders THJ and Bullock are a coin flip on what you'll get each night Powell wasn't playable last postseason and McGee isn't an NBA player. I'm not counting on M. Morris for anything. That gives you a 7-player rotation in the playoffs. Lot of work to do before Thusday if the Mavs are indeed all-in like this Kyrie move indicates.

So the biggest question is:
Do you go all-in now? I´d say Bertans + McGee + Mavs 2027 first top 6 protected for Bamba/Harris is an offer Orlando would accept. Levert + Pinson + Mavs 2nd round pick to Phoenix THJ to Cleveland Crowder/Saric to Dallas I guess Phoenix won´t do this, but if you do not want to extend Wood, then I´m 100% sure Phoenix does Crowder/Saric for Wood. New positional roster (I know Irving starts) Doncic/Irving/Ntilikina Green/Harris/Hardy Crowder/Bullock/X Wood/Kleber/Morris Bamba/Saric/Powell Could work.

I don't think you can trade Pinson either. You admit Phoenix wont do that first trade (which we can't do anyways) but put all of Wood/Crowder/Saric in your roster.

I thought we had one second left? Anyway if the 2027 1st has to be unprotected, you can ask for three 2nd rounders from Orlando back. I´m sure they´d happily do that. That 2027 1st could be the top top pick and is easily worth three 2nd rounders. I said I guess Phoenix says no, but it´s hard to tell. Crowder and Saric are both expiring and Crowder refuses to play for them. On paper Saric for Levert is a fair trade, but I think Phoenix overrates their position and leverage. But let´s do it like that now... Bertans + McGee + 2027 unprotected 1st for Bamba + Harris + three 2nd round picks. Crowder/Saric to Dallas THJ to Cleveland Levert + three 2nd round picks to Phoenix

This hasnt beent talked about much. What do we do with the Morris twin? Does he have anything left.

He's the lesser Morris twin, so I don't know his game well. Can he catch-and-shoot? If so, he'll absolutely get minutes. Heck, if there aren't any more deals, I think he and Bertans are the only healthy 4's on the roster. Think about that!

I dont see a fit for him here. Did we get stuck with him in the negotiations? Or are we they planning on playing him? Not sure what they see there.

Morris the Lesser is shooting 40% from three this year at 10 mpg. He will absolutely get more minutes than McGee. He's better than half the roster we have left, unfortunately. I think you can reasonably pencil him in at around 9th or 10th in the rotation - depending on what other deals we do.

Again, he is one of only two 4's on the roster, currently. The other is Bertans. I think the "fit" is pretty obvious. I'm sure Kleber will play that position a ton once he's healthy, as long as the roster stays as is, but my hunch is that Morris is at least able to get himself above Bertans in the pecking order.

Another thing about MTL (my new designation for him) is that having him on roster keeps Luka's ankles safe for two more games a year...
02-06-2023, 12:10 PM
Gotta feeling they’re about to start asking Frank to play that same undersized 4 role that DFS was playing unless there’s another move. Will be interesting what happens next.
02-06-2023, 12:11 PM
Has he recovered from his last encounter with Jokic?
