Josh Green is a top 5 Mavs player...

I would have loved to have Justin Patton here over WCS.

I say that as someone who was slightly dismayed when I found out we were trading for Patton just to waive him.

We have been saying the same thing the past many years after 2011. I like WCS. Should have found a way to retain Patton too. Take a chance on a talented big. Maybe pay Broekhoff under the table before waiving him

I wonder if it's legal to cut Cleveland and then sign Patton as a 2-way-er. I would be just fine with WCS and Patton as our bigs with KP-Kleber-Bobi.

Sigh we traded for this dude then waive him instead of ryan.. i don't get this team sometimes. Even justin Jackson is far better than ryan at basketball

Posted this in the trade thread...
My understanding is that Patton's G-League rights now belong to the Legends, unless he is claimed off waivers or signed after clearing.

Patton has played a total of 9 games in the NBA.
9 in 3 years. 9/246 games. And even in those games he's barely looked like a fringe 3rd stringer. I get it that Patton has shown some promise in the D-League, but I mean c'mon...
14x All-Star, 12x all-NBA, 1x MVP, 1x Finals MVP, 1 NBA Championship: Dirk Nowitzki, the man, the myth, the legend.

Probably not great timing to cut an Australian right now.

Felt he had a high ceiling though a team would have to put up with 2-3 years of developing him. Injuries have pushed back the timetable. He has a natural offensive fluidity and a sweet jump shot too. Hope the Mavs retain his rights. (01-24-2020, 09:35 PM)Scott41theMavs Wrote: I wonder if it's legal to cut Cleveland and then sign Patton as a 2-way-er.

Powell really chose bad timing to get injured. 2 weeks sooner, and much more would be possible (injured exception, 2 way,...). And they call him a team player...
I wanted Collins or Patton the DSJ year.
Funny thing is that I was looking up Patton's stats the night brfore the OKC deal hoping we could get him. When I saw we had I went "Yessss"! Now, if they waive him, its just another example of short-sightedness by the front office.
