I am not suggesting he is the only way to fill in those blanks. He just makes sense of the mystery before us. But there are also other ways to make sense of the mystery, like I suggested, a two for one trade where a wing and PG come back to fill the roster spot the Mavs have purposely left open.
I am just trying to make sense of what we know. I am not "wishing" anything. I actually think Simmons would be a big risk.
Ok, so its not wishful thinking. What trade do you image those two teams might agree on? Just a ball park. Do you think the Nets have any interest in giving up Simmons for Timmy and Powell? Do you see the Mavs sending a core piece for a player that doesn't fit and might not play? If the Mavs thought they were bringing in Simmons would they name Dinwiddie as a starter? I think the odds we trade for Simmons is well under 5%.
