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

[SwisherPrice]

This is one of the most boring teams to watch...and that is even with Luka. They play at a snail's pace with no movement and rely on the primary scorer to create open threes for others as the shot clock winds down. Nellie's Mavs shot a ton of threes but they were up and down the court in a free-flowing offense. 

If the MBT did not make a better effort to replace Brunson then someone should be fired. Once they made the KP/Dinwiddie trade, they saw what a successful formula was for this team - having 3 scoring guards who can put the pressure on defenses. They may not have valued Brunson...fine. But they should have valued his role and found a few replacements. To completely ignore it this offseason is a fire-able offense for someone in that front office. They could have taken a chance on Dennis Schroder and tried to make it work. I know Schroder's reputation is not the best but if it didn't work out then so be it, at least they tried. They could have had Dragic but apparently didn't expect him to do anything more than be Luka's locker room mentor. They did nothing and are now scrambling to find how to lower Luka's usage when we all knew what was going to happen.
