Glad we pulled this one out tonight. Need every one we can get these days….

Hardy was probably offered to everyone in the league at the deadline as a dump.  At 3 yrs 18 million no one is going to take that on how he is playing.  Probably my most disappointing mav.  He is better than he has shown.  His game has not grown though and looks like he is not even enjoying being on the team now.

And Gaff, and Klay and OMax and 2025 pick for KD.

Hardy is so much more disappointing.  There were obvious holes in his game.  I liked how the team tried to get him to improve on his weaknesses.  It could be the difference in 50 million in career earnings if he can be a passable ball handler and defender.  It just hasn't happened.  He will still look good when he is making shots.  He just hasn't made them since the trade deadline.  But I am tired of seeing him entering games and immediatly take tough shots (that miss) and then provides nothing else.  I am sure (at least i hope) there is a clear mandate what he needs to do to get more playing time.  Shooting a shot a minute, is probably not high on the teams list.  Also, in the past he has been one of the happier Mavs.  Watching him on the bench now he looks like a zombie.  Now, it could be he knows he is out of the rotation or that the team was desperately trying to move him.  Still though, he has been so bad for the past few weeks. 

At the moment the Hardy extension and the Omax draft pick are not looking like good Nico moves.

The sad part is we actually have an open roster spot but cant sign anyone. Another blunder by Nico.
