I'm not claiming the back half of that BS fire sale, but he did rip off my:
Mavs, GS and Bucks 3 way for AD
and
Mavs, Rockets trade for Kyrie (though the Nets would have to be involved to be legal)
And I'm not letting the Rockets get their final contending piece if the best 1st is a non-lottery pick swap three years into the future. That pick needs more upside.
And I'm 50/50 on the Dejounte Murray trade. But, again, the Mavs would need at least a couple 2nds because they're taking on longterm, big money for very movable, shorter term contracts.
The Lively deal is crap. Lively isn't off-limits, but the old NBA adage of "You never trade big for small" holds true here.
