2019-2020 Mavs Trade Discussion + Salary Chart

[Scott41theMavs]

It's not that we have a roster riddled with holes. It really is that we're all over the place regarding the particulars of what the needs even are and what the team really needs.

Nah. IGT is correct. There are differences of opinion regarding priorities. Moreover, there's a difference between 1) wanting to contend, whether this year or in a year or two, and 2) wanting to dominate for years to come. Regardless, I don't regard it as a matter of serious basketball debate that at a naked minimum, at least two of our three non-All-Star starters need to be improved upon/replaced - THJ by being traded away, with a better guard acquired in some way, Powell by the acquisition of a real center (e.g. Adams) or similar but superior big (Favors) and his being traded or relegated to the bench, and DFS being relegated to the bench by the acquisition of a superior 3-and-D player.

I am open to the idea of the Mavs someday miraculously winning a championship in the Luka/KP era with DFS starting and playing starter minutes (25+, no DSteve-ing). THJ or Powell? No way.

Would you make a trade of this type, with that many moving parts, if it was available right now?

Of course...? Why not....? Am I missing something here?
