I have no idea what to root for today. LOL. So, I think I may skip this game today.
Anxious to get another look at DSJ. There is a strong case the Mavs were right on Dragic. He may have provided a short burst to begin the year but he was running on fumes as the year went on. But DSJ was a mistake. He was begging for a job. Mavs had an open roster spot and a clear need (even if they thought otherwise). DSJ could have been a low cost gamble on a reclamation project. The other night was the first time I saw him this year in a game, but he appeared controlled for most of the night. It will be curious if he is a minimum contract again or if he has proven himself where he gets 5 or so million from a team.
It was just unfathomable then and now, that the Mavs didn't think they needed a third creator to start the season. Even more crazy how they stated their objectives heading into FA and found a way not to do any of them.
