Today's Lowe Post is a pretty good listen...especially if you want to hear news that supports the idea of Brunson continuing on as a Mav past the deadline and into next season.
MacMahon (not exactly a Mav's mouthpiece) was pretty unequivocal that Brunson isn't going anywhere now (absent a "what the....." kind of offer) and likely to stay this summer also. Lowe was selling the "Dallas can't lock itself into this lineup" line and TM was not buying. Tim was selling the "Mav's aren't that far off". He said they feel they need a little more offensive juice at the TDL. No names named.
Both were skeptical of the biggest names coming to Dallas (what do we have to give...especially if we can't unlock picks?). Big determinant of direction will be Luka's opinion of where the team is. Can't appear cheap. Can't take a step back to take a step forward. Win now and figure out the money later (they also made the argument that DFS at $11-$12mm and Brunson at $15-$17mm are tradeable later).
