They don't need to wait for a superstar because they already have that with Luka and KP. So they'll chart their own course building around that core while the rest of the league sits paralyzed by the 2021 hype.
I trully hope so. A couple of comments
- I think Dragic will stay in Miami. He loves it there, his family is there and I think Miami also appreciates him.
- let's rob Orlando. Announce trade for Gordon and then find a way to clear cap space for the dissapointed Fournier
. So let's get creative:1. resign THJ for a 4 year deal starting at 15 mil. WCS opts out, we renounce MKG. Sign #20 rookie, keep Barea cap hold
2. Announce trade for Gordon, Fournier sad
3. Give away Jackson and Bobi for no salary in return
4. Fournier opts out and Mavs sign him for a 4 year deal starting at 16,64 mil (max we can do after all the moves)
5. Mavs trade Wright + Barea SnT + #20 pick + 2025 pick for Gordon. Barea will be likely released by Orlando, so this is a final gift of couple of millions to him.
6. Sign #31 rookie, Reeves and vet minimum guys. Keep roster spot open for released players after TDL.
Luka, Brunson, vet min
THJ, Seth, Reeves
Fournier, DFS, 31st pick
Gordon, Maxi, Powell
KP, vet min center
