@"mvossman" you, yourself, said you had a hard time envisioning a good outcome to the DFS/Brunson situation.
You don't have to agree with this, and I'm sure there are 100 ways it could go that would be better than this, but if it comes down to these two, simple choices:
1) DFS/Brunson gone, KP here
2) KP gone, DFS/Brunson here
GIVE ME #2. I believe the Mavs would be a BETTER team in scenario 2 than 1. Either option is subtractive in nature, but again, we pretty much know he's not paying the tax next year, so...we have to pick the least of all the evils, right?
If this can be accomplished by moving Powell/Bullock, or any other creative way, GREAT, but from reading your responses, I'm left thinking that you are somehow still invested in the Luka/KP dream. I am not. I am out on that. It's not going to work. It's a dead end. Wheel spinning. Waste of time. My enthusiasm for the team will be renewed the exact second he's gone, and I think his value must be at the highest level since the Mavs got him! Now is the time.
