Trade & FA 2025-26: Free Agency Starts 5pm CST/6pm EST

[Dirknows]

Zach Lowe having a podcast that the Hawks have reached the breaking point with Young means the Hawks have reached the national meltdown stage. Beautiful negotiation position for the Mavs. Sounds like we can get Young, Risacher and at least two 1st round picks (Cavs 2026 + X). Maybe we can even dump Martin in the process or get a 3rd pick for Marshall. This is exactly the kind of moment to pounce.

EDIT:MacMahon on the Hoop Collective also saying Young has zero trade value.

I have to say if the Mavs are using the media here to subtly gaslight the Hawks, then I like the new Co-GMs already, if the trade result is accordingly.

We don't want Young, that is not being made up. We need to try and decrease our salary, not increase or take on future money. Only way I would take Young is if they threw in NOP pick and a 2027 first.
