I am against, since we don't have enough cap space probably to get a star.  So his main draw, that star players love Kidd, is pretty much irrelevant in the short-term.  Now, I am also pro-KP, so t...

I can't imagine Ujiri would come to Dallas if he decided not to move to DC last year, given his interests and his wife's background. Plus, Cuban.
