KL - basically, they parlayed a key bench guy and two draft picks into 1) a legit starter, which they needed, 2) two rookies who are each ready (in my aggressively-held opinion) to contribute 15-20 mpg from the bench, and 3) a solid defensive project.
Once again, not thrilled that the project was the guy we picked at 18, but Richardson-Terry-Tiger is a frigging *great* haul, then throw in Green on top of that - I would actually feel better about our night if Terry and Green's draft positions were reversed, but oh well. And we still have trade potential, and the MLE.
I would not at all be surprised if either Bogi or Gallo (or, treasure of treasures, Buddy Love) become Mavs on Friday. Any of those moves probably means no full MLE, but we should still be able to get a decent frontcourt guy with the partial MLE, and perhaps re-sign WCS with the one-year rights we do have on him.
