RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: Mavs connected with Kuz, Wiggs, PJ, Grant, and DFS - SleepingHero - 02-04-2024 (02-04-2024, 08:09 AM)DanSchwartzgan Wrote: For those who want to wait until the summer: Reggie wasn't a bad acquisition till his 2nd year. CWood was a disaster. Grant is becoming a disaster. Wright+JRich were disasters. The difference between those offseasons and this upcoming one? Mavs didn't have 3 FRP to trade for a big money free agent/trade. Can't really compare there.

I'll probably try to look up some advanced analytics on these guys, but I haven't compared them yet, so if anyone wants to do that, be my guest :-) This is all just eye test / gut.As far as on court play? Here’s my order: Miles Bridges Huge gap Jerami Grant Gap PJ Wash, Kuz and Wiggins Taking assumed cost to acquire into account (and keep for Bridges)? Bridges Gap Grant PJ Wiggins Kuz I think the ideal straight PF for this team is Tari Eason and the best PF/C option is Beef Stew. Edit: Also, I have to assume with Bridges being a Christian that he has truly repented of his sins. If God can forgive him, who am I to not?

Not to mention the lack of capspace because they had to max/near max the deadline additions. This. I don’t care WHEN they do it, I just want them to skip the bad trades and save up assets until they can actually afford one of the good ones. RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: Mavs connected with Kuz, Wiggs, PJ, Grant, and DFS - SleepingHero - 02-04-2024 Ok I'm going to shut down further Bridges talk. No reason to continue talking about the wife beater. This is for trade rumors, discussions, and targets. If you're suggesting a trade for him then that's fine. We aren't talking about the morality of if beating your partner is ok. We all know the answer to that. Any further posts about that I'll move it to the troll cave. Moving on. RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: Mavs connected with Kuz, Wiggs, PJ, Grant, and DFS - SleepingHero - 02-04-2024 [Moore] The Pelicans are also known to have made a serious offer for Mikal Bridges and were likewise rebuffed. Two league sources said the Nets have claimed multiple offers of five first-rounders for Mikal Bridges, but I’m pretty skeptical on that front. "One, it might be five “firsts” with swaps and/or heavily protected picks, and if the offer was really five firsts, why share that and then continue to say they are not interested in trading Mikal Bridges?" RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: Mavs connected with Kuz, Wiggs, PJ, Grant, and DFS - vfromlmf - 02-04-2024 My biggest problem with PJ Washington is if he's so good, why is Cody Martin starting over him? I get that PJ averages a few mpg more than Martin, but before the Rozier trade, PJ was 6th in minutes, 6th in scoring, 5th in rebounding on a bad team. If we're talking about who the best players on that team are you have Bridges, Hayward, LaMelo, B Miller, and Rozier before he was traded who are clearly better.

Forst of all he brings size at 6'9. He moves like a wing and also knows how to play physical. He can score the ball(I know people worry about his efficiency, but I am sure that playing alongside Luka and Kyrie would work wonders for him. On defense, he has shown when he was a Laker that he can be really good.

I haven’t put much thought into what it would take to get him because I assumed it was 2FRP’s + Is there anything out there that suggests he might be available for just the one FRP Mavs can trade? RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: Mavs connected with Kuz, Wiggs, PJ, Grant, and DFS - SleepingHero - 02-04-2024 @RickyBeerGuy Since the start of the 2021-2022 season the Warriors are 36-34 when Steph Draymond and Klay play. They are 33-8 when Steph and Draymond play without Klay.

It may not be possible and may make us worse this year, maybe. But if I could move Hardaway to a third team and get the assets for DFS sign me up. I wouldn’t give up our first or OMAx/green, so that is probably not likely. The issue with Hardaway is he is never ideal in our closing group but it going to be tough for Kidd to keep him out of closing lineups. If I could enter this offseason with dFS, Josh, OMAx as our busy bees, we can be aggressive looking for that #3. Maybe OMAx and Green would be included in that guy as well RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: Mavs connected with Kuz, Wiggs, PJ, Grant, and DFS - omahen - 02-04-2024 (02-04-2024, 01:50 PM)Smitty Wrote: Grant would probably be at the top of my list also, if available.

If we're talking about who the best players on that team are you have Bridges, Hayward, LaMelo, B Miller, and Rozier before he was traded who are clearly better. All valid points. I’m working on the assumption that the cost to acquire is Grant Williams. My opinion of Grant Williams is that the Mavs would be better if he simply never played another minute. PJW by default is an upgrade at worst and can provide a legitimate difference on the court at best.

RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: Mavs connected with Kuz, Wiggs, PJ, Grant, and DFS - ItsGoTime - 02-04-2024 Patience for the sake of a better deal around the corner is also not a good plan. If we are to get Grant in the offseason with 2 FRPs, upgrading the team and hopefully getting out of playin range using 1 pick now is a good strategy too.

Just amazing. You and I lead the charge on PJW in the summer. I was even making Maxi comparisons a few years ago. Now, I’m not sure he’s quite Maxi (at his best) and I must admit I didn’t expect Gwill to be so bad but I would love to see what he’d look like next to Luka and Kai. He’s a 3 level scorer and a decent defender. RE: Trade & FA 2023-24: Mavs connected with Kuz, Wiggs, PJ, Grant, and DFS - omahen - 02-04-2024 (02-04-2024, 02:05 PM)Smitty Wrote: All valid points.

Same position, same age, similar contract (GW contract a bit lower annualy but a year longer), GW having far worse season.

Maybe they still believe in him. Like the other poster pointed out about PJW status on the hornets. A change of scenery for both could be best for everyone.

He may be the best fit on this roster and your proposal might be our best option. Offensively, he's ideal next to Luka, Kyrie and Lively. The issue is that now that he's on bad teams, he doesn't play defense. He has the frame and the athleticism though to be a good defender again. It's a gamble but I think that might be the best move possible. I'd be willing to pay the two first round picks this coming summer as long as the outgoing salary his Holmes and Kleber or Holmes and Grant Williams. We would just need to gradually upgrade our role players over time. |
