It seems to me that there are all sorts of playmaking guards in the NBA (or otherwise eligible to play in the NBA) who are as good as/better than Dragic.
Not all of them are available by tomorrow, agreed. But the idea that Dragic, at $19M, is the best acquisition out there who could play for the Mavs this season doesn't seem to pass the smell test.
I agree that Dragic seems like a good acquisition for a price approaching his real value. I am just questioning whether it makes sense to substantially overpay for him just to have something done this week. Smacks of desperation over a player who might not be a significant upgrade over Brunson to get the season started.
Maybe Dragic really is that important. Or maybe overpaying for him is really the best the Mavs can do this season. If the latter is the case, silent tears are coursing down my face.
