*A Flex SF-PF at the 3 (someone like T.Eason)
--- GWill at the 4
*B Flex F-C at the 5 (someone like Z.Collins)

This said, could we use GWill as our POA defender?  If so, I'd love to move Green, THJ, Holmes, Outgoing Wood, McGee, and perhaps 27FRP to acquire *A and *B.

Luka, Hardy
Kyrie, Curry
*A, OMax
G.Will, Maxi
*B, Powell, Lively

This gives us incredible flexibility in the future.

I would MUCH rather Hunter than Capella.  From what I proposed earlier, Hunter becomes *A.

Tari Eason or Grant Williams will break down and have short careers if they have to do that full-time, lol.

Deandre Hunter deleted all his previous IG posts about the Hawks and only has one post up with the caption “Ciao”, which means “hello” or “goodbye”?

G: Cason......... Micic, Mann, TyTy, Mills (5)
G: SGA............ Oladipo, Isaiah Joe, Aaron Wiggins (4)
F: Giddey......... Dort, Dieng, Kenrich Williams, Keyontae Johnson (5)
F: Jaylen.......... Garuba, Robinson-Earl, Bertans (4)
C: Chet............ Poku, Jaylin Williams (3)

They have 21 on the roster.... 9 guards, 9 forwards, and 3 bigs.

So is there an opportunity to convert McGee into 2 depth players here?

Or is he real?  I don’t know, but I hope the Mavs are aggressively working to get in on this. I’ve come to believe that Josh Green will be a valuable player for someone, but that he’s not big enough to guard the 3, is thus strictly a guard, and his next contract will be too big for his optimal role on the Mavs, who have plenty of guard help. I’d include him as part of a package to get a quality wing or center.
