He is basically expiring next season and his contract might come handy. Not so certain about Ball but I would certainly take that pick it was reported. Unless Mavs are saving Johnson for some pipedream trade some other team will win in the end...

Bledsoe/Ball is the perfect opportunity for the Mavs given their lack of assets. Taking on a bad contract to get a player you want. I also think Bledsoe would be fine coming off the bench and you'd probably be losing a rotational piece. JRich + JJ works financially iirc.

That sounds like a fair deal depending on the quality of the NO pick. They have their own picks, Bucks, Lakers etc. Generally I do hope they will consider such moves, if nothing else materializes. Cory Joseph + Jabari Parker for James Johnson gives you a trade chip for the summer and a chance to test Jabari Parker. Plus he´s a huge bench upgrade over Johnson for this season.

They are totally irrelevant for the discussion. They had 30 mil of cap space and signed Curry and Wright. They basically dumped Barnes to get that cap space.

Not using the remaining 10m was even worse. They could have added another legit rotation without going over the luxury tax line but for some reason Donnie and Mark thought that a TPE would be more useful. RE: AROUND the NBA: Lonzo Ball likely to be moved before TDL - HanspardShowerVoice - 03-24-2021 Remember back when you could live with Bledsoe being a complete idiot on offense and continually doing stupid things because he was at least good at defense? Those days are over. Like most players who just rely on pure athleticism, as soon as they hit the age where they lose half a step they turn into complete and total liabilities.

They didnt need cap space to sign those guys. They still had a potential $36-38 million to add to the team. Honestly, I wish they would just admit that they goofed not knowing about the tampering thing. That would be more reassuring than telling us that was the plan.

Or would you rather throw around FRP Mavs don't have RE: AROUND the NBA: Lonzo Ball likely to be moved before TDL - Mavs2021 - 03-24-2021 (03-24-2021, 01:27 PM)HanspardShowerVoice Wrote: I would take Bledsoe in a deal for Ball if it dropped the asking price, but I would immediately buy out/drop Bledsoe.Buying him out would be an AWFUL mistake. Besides the on-court production, you´d have to buy out his full contract including a full 2022/2023 guarantee. The last year of his contract (2022/2023) is only partially guaranteed at $3.9M, which makes him an actual trade asset as early as next season. We could use his "expiring" contract to match Lavine or Beal.
