“He asked to be traded already.”
- @WindhorstESPN on Giannis
Another point about this, albeit slightly off topic, but on a topic from yesterday involving someone's hypothetical DAL/MIL/SA three-way that got everyone's hackles up:
Giannis and AD are two huge names available. Why are they available? What do their teams have in common? For me, there is direct correlation to one thing: they don't have PG's. That's the main reason their teams are underperforming, and the main reason the guys want out.
My conclusion, and one that I find myself more entrenched in with each passing week, is that if you don't have a PG, you don't have a team in today's sport. THAT's why I'd happily facilitate Giannis to SA for a chance at finding one in Dylan Harper and feel like I won the lottery all over again. To come out of one draft with the top 2 guys, both your franchise cornerstone in Flagg and a really good chance at his career long running mate? That would be worth a lot to me.
But even without that pipe dream, I'm to a point where I won't take this team seriously again until they have someone handling the ball with a future. Even Kyrie doesn't do much for me, as awesome as he has been here. I need to see the guy who's going to go to war with Flagg for the next 5-10 years before I get excited again. At that point, I'll be all in to take the Mavs ride with a full heart. If I'm moving AD, THAT is what I want. Period.
