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

[cow]

I don't completely hate it to be honest but I guess it depends how much you love THJ and how much you hate Bertans.  It would take your committed salary to just a hair over 70m next year.  After the draft, Nico would have a full arsenal of draft picks and a ton of cap room to go big game hunting.  Lakers want Kyrie, Nets don't want Westbrook so I'm assuming the negotiations are "we'll give you no picks" versus "we want two picks".  Lakers have lusted after Buddy Love for a while and while Bertans contract sucks, they do need more than just one shooter.  Powell is just expiring salary filler.  Does it make the Mavs worse this year?  Probably but within the margins.  It would give you an additional ball handler the team needs along with the many, many, many, many turnovers that comes with him handling the ball.  Worst comes to worst, you just send him home.  

Will this ever happen?  No.  Then again, we never see the trades the Mavs usually make coming.
