Only reason why I believe that is that the Kings were more than ready to give up on Hield for Kuzma+Harrell. Kuzma at the time was seen as nothing more as a 6-7th guy, so that's the value we should try to replicate.
Perhaps a 3 team trade between HOU+SAC+DAL where each team gets a little something they want.
Mavs send Powell+Brown+2 2nds to the Kings. Then Green+WCS to HOU.
Mavs get Hield+Theis.
Luka/Brunson/Burke
THJ/Hield/
DFS/Bullock
KP/Maxi
Theis/Boban
That 10 man rotation looks strong. Probably a bit pie in the sky from me though, but I really do think those two guys are the most gettable role players out there right now and both of them would radically transform the bench for this team.
Not sure I get the fascination with Hield. Seems like an overpriced 6th man to me. He is probably a little bit of upgrade offensively from THJ, but he may be even worse defensively. Feel like this team already has enough one way players. Besides, our bench is already killing it.
Theis on the other hand, would be a perfect addition. If the FO plan is to protect KP during the regular season with another big on the floor (at least when the opponent goes big) then what they really need is a guy that can play with KP, but also be a legit back-up center. Theis would play that role so much better than Powell/WCS. This feels like another miss by FO. If they operate under the cap I think the could have squeezed THJ, Bullock and Theis.
