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

[StrandedOnBeauboisHill]

Our "top" 3&D guys have not been playing well on either side of the ball (Green has been better than all of them)
Our 3rd creator spot has been filled by Timmy and he has been terrible
Any minute McGee plays

Last year I felt like we threw out a lot of reasons we were struggling earlier and I think at it's foundation it really came down to your first bullet point.  We didn't hit shots or play good defense early and then those things came around later, I think that same narrative can play out for this team (though the ceiling is probably a little lower and the west is a little better now).  

I'm worried our third creator problem won't really be solved until Hardy is ready to solve it for us (hopefully by next season) but it will be interesting to see what Kemba can bring.

Anything Hardaway can bring us is gravy at this point.  Nights like last night will always pop up every 4th or 5th game where he's a real game changer out there, we really just need his off nights to look more like 3-8 instead of 0-8.
