ROSTER TALK: Mavs favs for Vogel if no HC job exists. Kyrie handshake deal?

[DallasMaverick]

Guys like Wood and Sexton are not available because of roster construction.  They are available due to red flags.  Don't think that is apples to apples comparison.  I'm curious how often two competing teams trade a 3&D player for a creator when said creator does not have red flags or is wildly overpriced?  Maybe it happens more than I realize?

I'm not saying our role players are untouchable, its simply that any trade proposed where I think "yeah, I would send him out for that" I look at it from the other team's perspective and don't think they would pull the trigger.

As an aside, hard disagree on Sexton vs Brunson.  They are different players offensively, but Sexton does not have Brunson elite mid range creation.  He is a higher volume scorer, but less efficient and much worse playmaker.  Add to that his almost Trae Young level defensively and selfish red flags, and I have no interest going after him.

Sexton = Russell Westbrook starter kit
