THJ Foot Fracture: What to do?

[ThisIStheYear]

Its weird that I find my self defending THJ and that contract as I was against his signing and felt it was too much (even if did represent "market" price).  I was not a fan of DeRozan either but I would have preferred that to running it back, or going after MLE folks like Caruso and Danny Green with slight overpays.  

But the THJ of the last two seasons was a significant contributor to winning games.  The contract he signed was market value and should be easily tradeable (before the injury), especially with its descending structure.  He started the season in a terrible slump like most of the team (admittedly a bigger hit for him as its his primary contribution), does not fit with Kidd's scheme and then broke his foot. 

Just seems like there is a lot of recency bias with all the THJ bashing.  He is not a good fit on this team, especially with Kidd as the coach, but we are likely going to be missing his offense the rest of this season, especially if we trade Brunson away.

As long as the THJ signing doesn’t prevent the Mavs from keeping more valuable players, like DFS and Brunson, I guess, no harm no foul. It’s Cuban’s money.  But, if when the dust settles, the Mavs have THJ and not the other guys because of money, then they were idiots.
