The base of the trade looking Like this Your paying a first for PJ and dumping Holmes salary. Not interested. PJ is not worth significantly more than THJ, I don't want to pay assets to dump Holmes, and Bridges is a rental, which makes him not worth the off court stuff. Take Holmes and Bridges out of it and make our asset cost a second or two, and then you have me interested. RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: BRK may want multiple 2nds for O'Neal?

The things you are describing have been the case his entire career, yet he has been a valuable contributor, especially during the WCF run. The reality is on a Luka team (and in the NBA in general) players that can play versatile high level defense and hit a corner three have value, even if they can't do other basketball things. His problem is that he is broken, and there is concern if he can ever get back to what he was. RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: BRK may want multiple 2nds for O'Neal?

I hope they find a way to get rid of him. if not, just park him on the bench next to Powell and Morris. He offers nothing on the court anymore.

His problem is that he is broken, and there is concern if he can ever get back to what he was. I dont want to go down a negative rabbit hole... But you have to draw the line somewhere. Not being able to dribble is an issue....but more significantly is his fumbling the ball often trying to catch a pass or his inability to make safe passes. The guy has no clue how to make a safe pass. I just want more skill out of my players. I understand Luka effect and all that. But you cant rely on guys like Kleber late in Playoffs when defenses tighten up and you have to shoot the ball a tad quicker or pass the ball out safely if you are covered heavily. I get trying to get these guys on the cheap...but they have to have basic skill. Have to. Submitting to a philosophy of "My guy only needs to be able to play defense and shoot a 3" seems like it will catch up to you at some point.

The base of the trade looking Like this Trading our 2 upcoming expiring contracts to match other bigger contracts and the rest of our picks for PJ Washington and a guy the Mavs cannot hope to retain in the summer due to cap rules doesn't make sense on any level. RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: BRK may want multiple 2nds for O'Neal? Mavs interested? - SleepingHero - 02-01-2024 I actually thought Maxi had a soft bounce back game last night and wasn't horrible defensively. His shot looked smoother. Not sure why it's a sudden revelation that Maxi can't dribble or catch a pass. Those have never been strong tools in his belt. His offense is slowly coming back. He's not the Maxi of old (and that contract is yeeeeesh), but I have an itty bitty tiny small piece of hope he can return to a rotation player sooner than later. Hopefully he uses the upcoming all star break to get back into shape. RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: BRK may want multiple 2nds for O'Neal?

He has looked much better on that end than he did at the beginning of this year, at least to me. RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: GSW to take calls on Wiggins, CP3, Klay| Kuzma and Mavs interest? - Ghost of Podkolzin - 02-01-2024 (01-31-2024, 07:33 PM)vfromlmf Wrote: To be honest, I super scared by it but I know there's a lot I don't know about both situations. We all thought the TWolves got over on GS for unloading Wiggins on them. He then proved to be at least the 3rd or 4th best player on a championship team. If Wiggins was taken in the 2nd round he'd be known as a B+ NBA starter, "glue guy". Kuzma is a good rebounder and a better defender than his reputation. Last time he played with a great distributor, he was 44.3%fg and 36.1%3pt. Good numbers for a big wing, not chucker numbers. Maxi is done. I said this last year and most people on this board tore me up for it. He played only 18% of the minutes afforded him. This year it's 11%. In his prime he was a great catch and shoot big and a great perimeter defender. It's been quite a few years since he was either. GWill is as advertised. A good backup, end of a tight playoff rotation (got a few playoff DNPs in BOS). Too inconsistent to be a starter on a championship team. I like J.Green off the bench, coming in as either a SG or SF. This leaves us the need for a starting SF and PF. I'd rather a PF/SF and a PF/C, giving us more flexibility. Wiggins and Kuzma, while providing different value, are both more of PF/SF. Need: PF/SF - T.Eason, Kuzma, Wiggins, Bogs PF/C - Z.Collins, P.Reed, D.Wade, Randle, Horford RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: BRK may want multiple 2nds for O'Neal?

(48 games * 48 minutes = 2,304 ... played 243.1) Any analysis of his performance has to be balanced with his %mins played. Luka is 65%. RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: BRK may want multiple 2nds for O'Neal?

Also mentiones Mavs had interest in Avdija and Gafford in the past. https://substack.com/inbox/post/141279505 RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: BRK may want multiple 2nds for O'Neal?

RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: WAS mandate to get more picks this TDL - Smitty - 02-01-2024 (01-29-2024, 09:17 PM)F Gump Wrote: Not correct. The NBA's most recent cap projection for 2024-25 is $142M, and the Mavs are committed to ~$172.045M, which means they are projected to be about $30M over the cap as is. I want to circle back to this because there’s reports that the Mavs are interested in Bridges. I believe they’d find a way to resign him if that were the case. If you trade THJ, Holmes and Gwill (add a pick?) for Hayward and Bridges it brings the available cap space number next year to: ~$24.5M - accounting for the $1M less cap # and no Curry. Roster: Luka - Hardy Irving - Lawson Exum - Green Maxi - Omax Lively - Powell -4 empty slots I’ll assume Bridges signs 4/72M-77M. Making year one 18M. Bringing the total cap space down to 6.5M A 2-3 FRP’s plus Kyrie (40M) package for Lauri (18M) & Sexton (18M) trade brings you to ~10.5M in cap space to fill 2 more spots. Luka - Hardy - (FA) Exum - Sexton - Lawson Bridges - Green Lauri - Omax - Maxi Lively - (FA) - Powell Can you get Hartenstein for a starting salary of ~$10.5M and sign a vet min 3rd PG? Anyway, this kind of thinking is my preferred way forward for the Mavs. Roster overhaul! RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: BRK may want multiple 2nds for O'Neal? Mavs interested? - Okstate819 - 02-01-2024 If they really value Hardy, Green, or OMAX as this suggests I would think Hardy would be the expendable one. Grant Williams, Richaun Holmes, Jaden Hardy, and 2 2nd round picks for Kuzma? RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: BRK may want multiple 2nds for O'Neal?

I am probably the number one Kuz hater on this site, and I would pull that trigger. I'm not sure 2 2nds and Hardy is enough for teams to take on those two contracts, let alone get Kuz. The price may be going down on Kuz, but not this far. RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: BRK may want multiple 2nds for O'Neal?

Also mentiones Mavs had interest in Avdija and Gafford in the past. I assume the only way Dallas gets in the bidding if the package included salary, one of those three young prospects and 27 first. I think Dallas would rate Hardy the lowest, but I would love how they would rate the first and the other two. Which of them would not be on the table?

I'm on the side that wants Kuzma, so this is a no brainer for me. But way light on the Mavs side. RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: BRK may want multiple 2nds for O'Neal?

Yes just looking that the Kings could be serious players so unless washington really likes one of our youngsters you will need a comparable offer. Kings could offer Barnes or Huerter with Mitchell and a 2026 first and second. Dallas would need to uncles the 27 first, I believe. Not sure I would be intereted RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: BRK may want multiple 2nds for O'Neal? Mavs interested? - Smitty - 02-01-2024 Mavs continue to register trade interest in Kyle Kuzma, per @TheSteinLine They “have a number of young players who could appeal to the Wizards — from last year's No. 24 overall pick Olivier-Maxence Prosper to third-year guard Jaden Hardy to the recently extended Josh Green” Trading Omax and a FRP for Kuzma?! From MFFL to FML RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: WAS mandate to get more picks this TDL - F Gump - 02-01-2024 (02-01-2024, 03:30 PM)Smitty Wrote: I want to circle back to this because there’s reports that the Mavs are interested in Bridges. I believe they’d find a way to resign him if that were the case. If you trade THJ, Holmes and Gwill (add a pick?) for Hayward and Bridges it brings the available cap space number next year to: $24.5M ? No. I previously gave you the result from doing all that (incl Curry) and it yielded $12.54M cap room, less than the NT MLE. Now, with a $141M cap expected, the cap room number after all that would be even smaller (about $11.57M). However, I think it's all a pointless exercise anyhow. I don't expect either Bridges or CHA to allow him to be traded now, because it will strip him of Bird rights, which impacts both his salary potential on the next deal PLUS the value CHA can extract in a trade. Instead, I would expect him to be a hot topic in July. We'll see then how badly he has damaged his appeal, or whether he will have suitors for a big contract. I'm curious - where are you reading that the Mavs are interested in a trade for Bridges? |
