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

[F Gump]

@"Kammrath", I was going through some box scores tonight, and it seems like your boy Ruchaun Holmes is the odd man out in Sac. He’s playing McGee minutes.

If the Mavs want him, seems like the right time.

I was one of those wishing for Holmes, when the Mavs were in dire need of a big (with him being very available). But now that they are overrun again, I've cooled on that.

That LONGGGGGGGG contract is just too ghastly for what he's able to bring to the table imo.

He's not going to offer what they wanted from McGee. (The fact that McGee isn't currently doing it very well doesn't mean you want another who doesn't do it well either, and he makes double what McGee makes.)
At his best, he offers efficient scoring close to the basket, like DP.
But he can't give much else. He doesn't get up many shots. He has no game at all beyond 10 feet. He's not a plus rim protector to be a defensive presence. He can't guard the perimeter. 

I think he'd be a less desirable version of DP, who also is an efficient scorer but does help in more areas. With DP already here, it's hard to see any real use for RH.

There's not a financial gain to have him either. RH's contract is the same size as DP's but runs 3 times as long. Ugh, no thanks on that.
