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

[KillerLeft]

WE WILL PLAY 5-OUT.  It just won't be 100% of the time.  The ability to play both ways IS A GOOD THING.

You keep saying this like I don’t get it. I do. Super simple. You’re saying they have the option of playing two bigs now, if they need to. Great. 

What I’m saying that being REQUIRED to play “both ways” is NOT a good thing. Disagree if you want, but if they can’t get to 8-9 without playing a dinosaur, I’m sorry - that’s not flexibility in my book. That’s moving in the wrong direction. 

If there was some indication that McGee would be 3rd in the pecking order behind Wood and Kleber, I’d be ecstatic with the player (if not the contract). But, the indications are that they’re back to this “____ is a 4 in the regular season and a 5 in the playoffs” and I can’t stand that thinking. Hate it, hate it, hate it. Outside of the Lakers in one abnormal season, who has that worked for?

If there was a way for the roster to be played without McGee getting a single minute - if they had that OPTION, then we could start to use words like “flexible” in a way that mattered.
