Why was that a dodged bullet? Either combination discussed would be a big upgrade over Lee and would not hurt our 2021 FA dream.
1) Dragic is excellent for Miami off the bench.
2) Olynik is a very servicable big man that would look great next to Doncic. Certainly more useful than WCS. Half the board here want to sign DJJ in the offseason
Remember the details. Miami thought the Mavs wanted all 3. Mavs themself said they only want Olynyk and DJJ. Mavs would have wasted their entire capspace on those 3 players. That´s not what I call a succesful offseason.
What the Mavs did afterwards wasn´t great either but I prefer Curry and Boban over Olynyk. Dragic and DJJ would habe been rentals. Both are FA this year. Olynyk has a player option in 2021. That´s the Mavs max capspace window.
I am also not as high on DJJ. Great athlet and dunker but that´s it. Maybe slightly above average on defense.
