Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[KillerLeft]

I’ve long wondered the same thing about Middleton.  Every time I bring it up someone tells me he’s going to Miami (and he may).  

As we discuss positions and roles, some of our worst 3 point shooters (last season) are what I would call point forwards (Flagg and Naji).  Both get downhill easily and can score or pass out of those drives.  It should look much different with so many shooters on the team now.  Middleton fits this mold as well.  I could see a world in which he’s kind of the third string point forwards and good locker room guy.  Not sure what that pays, but it might be a valuable contract to trade at the TDL if done correctly.

Yeah…OR, maybe Dallas will facilitate his landing with a team of his choosing at a higher rate than the minimum, via his bird rights? 

I mean, even if it’s just for a 2nd or two…I’d just hate to think they won those extra few games for NOTHING.
