Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[cow]

The bad news: so far, the roster makes even less sense than it did before FA started.
The good news: both Mavs targets, Aldama and Sasser, will help tremendously with spacing. Like, a lot, I think.

I'm not concerned (yet) about 5-man combos or the rotation. When thinking in groups of two only, Aldama fits really well with Flagg, Kyrie, Johnson, Lively, Christie, Marshall, whoever you want to think about. And...kinda seems like they found their "stretch 5" option.

I think you should have some concern unless you expect Kyrie to play 82.  Bench shot creation is going to be rough, especially if everyone gets their wish of ripping my heart out and trading Naji.  Nembhard had some nice games last year, but I'm not sure I see it yet.
