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

[Chicagojk]

So reading the Tea leaves, sounds like we don’t have much stuff to offer into trades.  Things can change but Dallas has been pretty vocal about having Hardaway back and now talking about Din starting.  

We also may not be getting a tpe, and are limited in offering a first round pick soon via trade and we are really thin with future second round picks.

So it seems left we are left with a minimum salary guys or a Powell trade.  Powell may need us to include Josh Green for a trade.  I prefer to keep Green unless it is a clear upgrade.

So Unfortunately we may be pretty close to being done.

So it looks like Powell wasn't in Vegas.  He tends to travel in the same circle as Maxi, Josh and the now departed Jalen.   Both Maxi and Josh were at the game yesterday.

If the Mavs are really thinking their big move may be 18 plus months out (and this is just speculation), why not look for players who are free agents in '24 to switch out the expiring '23 Powell?

For instance, Derrick Rose is a FA in '24.  Would you trade for him for Powell?   Powell comes off the books a year earlier.  Doug McDermott, Josh Hard (don't see this happening), Talen Horton-Tucker,  Rudy Gay, Mike Conley (higher salary), Jarred Vanderbilt, Marcus Morris are some other names.
