2019-2020 Mavs Trade Discussion + Salary Chart

[Fuerza1]

Just last week I thought THJ was the deadest weight ever and shouldn't ever see the floor. He's streaky, but so far he's made a huge difference in the starting lineup and I'm hesitant to trade him before I see how that experiment ends.

I'd give Seth more rope since he's had the most inconsistencies with his minutes and injuries, so I'm not ready to call him expendable just yet.

Powell for sure needs to go, but we need another 5 who can play his roll better. Zeller is certainly a name that's crossed my mind as a better Powell, but watching him (and his stats) suggest he's more lateral than vertical move. It's hard to figure out what this team needs when they're producing at the rate they currently are. 

I wonder if OKC would be willing to do a Powell+Lee for Adams straight up.

Personally, I am not a big Adams fan. To me he'd have more of a DAJ type impact here rather than Tyson Chandler. He's physical and we could surely use more of that. For Powell + Lee, easily yes but I highly doubt that's OKC's best offer. 

I don't think we need a center, I am of the belief we find an upgraded 4-guy and keep KP at the 5. Kleber can play back-up 5 with Boban.  

I don't want to trade anybody right now because sometimes chemistry is more important than a better player ability wise.


What do you guys think of Jonas Valančiūnas

I am fine with standing pat and giving this group to prove themselves in the playoffs then make the appropriate changes next off-season. But it's never too early to talk hypotheticals, and this is the Trade Ideas thread so lets get crazy. 

Jonas I don't see the need for him honestly. As stated above, I think we need a 4-guy who can stretch the floor, switch, and rebound at a fairly high level. Too bad those guys aren't easy to obtain. 

Would I love to have JV? Sure but depends who you give up.
