I just think our team would be better off with more defense.

I don't think the MBT will look at Hield at all, simply because his contract extends out for several years. I believe he would be a good asset and potentially flippable in a later deal down the line. But it's unlikely we see any moves like that bc it's all ab Giannis right now.
I actually liked the content of your post and thought it was pretty accurate and well-thought-out. I just wanted to say that I don't want Hield because defense matters.
Ya I have read mixed reviews ab his defense. I haven't watched enough to form an opinion. I see him as a clear upgrade over THJ but he's just an example. Mavs will very likely pass up signing a guy for the full MLE even if it's a player that could be an asset bc they won't dare cut into that 2021 cap space.
Curry is quite an asset, albeit not a perfect player. Could Donnie find a deal like that this summer? I think for sure he could but even if Wright is dumped I bet Mavs go with non-guaranteed or expiring deals to ensure they keep that max slot open in 2021. That's my big frustration.
