2019-2020 Mavs Trade Discussion + Salary Chart

[ItsGoTime]

Cause

1) Nobody knew, that Justin Jackson is not very good.  By this standard, nobody still knows that JJ is not very good.
2) we wanted to tank.  You can tank and still negotiate a trade better than that.
3) we didn´t want to re-sign Barnes.  Sac showed how desperately they wanted Barnes by giving him such a big extension. Sure we didn't want him, but extracting 1 more asset from that trade would have made all the difference. 
 
There wasn´t much on the Kings roster at the time that was interesting under the circumstances. Probably could have hustled for a long-shot trial of Labissiere or Swanigan, but that´s about it.  Harry Giles is who I wanted and thought would have made the trade even, regardless of how good or bad the 2 ended up being. He was just coming back from injury too which should have helped Sac make the decision.

We got swindled by the worst GM in the league. Let that set in.

The poor ft shooting just doesn’t lend itself to a belief that he’ll ever be a consistent shooter overall.

So Luka has no chance then?
