Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

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.

He's awesome, no doubt. It's concerning (as you suggest) that his coaches don't seem to agree so far, but that isn't the hold up for me. Depending on Lively's future, the Mavs have as many as FIVE players I think are deserving of minutes at the 5 right now, and I'd say Johnson and Ware are comparable enough that Ware's style wouldn't add much in the way of NEW value. If they didn't have Johnson I'd probably be all about it, but I think the Mavs just drafted a similar (probably better) version of Ware who's soon to be a 28-32 minutes per player.
