Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

Impressive skillset. I'm intrigued by the player in a vacuum. 

I just don't think he offers help in an area of need. What this team needs is a PG established enough to push WCJ into a clear 3rd guard role (with or without Martin in the mix) and who can play with or without Kyrie on the floor. Their secondary need is a guy who can do what Martin does, only with a little more stability and staying power. A combo of Martin and Christie, I guess. 

If the Mavs had those two players, they'd be like the 4th or 5th best team in the West right this second, with the arrow pointed steeply UP. Depending on how good the targets were, I'd trade any front court player not named Flagg, Lively, Johnson or Risacher to get them (though not ALL of the rest - just whichever 1-2 it took).

Agreed on the need. I am just looking at getting some skill at the 5 spot as well while the price may be low and see if May can unlock the potential.
