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

[ItsGoTime]

Probably no one, but maaaaaybe a team that's really, really close and doesn't care so much about their war chest? Like the Clippers (not now, with Wall) or the Brooklyn "on papers" for example? 

But your point is a good one. It's like the board has decided they know what the cost of these guys will be without having any info at all other than the basic and obvious truth that "Ainge likes 1sts." 

If someone would've suggested that Gobert would've gotten the return he did, most would've laughed. If someone would've suggested that Wood was gettable for the price the Mavs paid, they would've laughed. The guessing is often wrong in both directions.

Might I suggest the third paragraph (on top of the Mitchell haul) is the answer to the second one?
