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

[mvossman]

3 FRPs and space is nowhere close to nothing. And i don’t think the patient route was an option for Luka. It’s a players league. Plus i trust Luka more than basketball idiot Cuban. If he wants to go for it now, let’s do it. I trust him. Luka talks all the time about not playing too many years. I don’t think he’s one of those guys that wants to play forever. He’s already in his prime

I didn't say it was nothing (although I did point out its only two picks), its just not nearly enough if Kyrie walks.  Cap space is not as valuable as some folks make it out to be.  This franchise has no history bringing in high level free agents including the current group two years ago when they had over 30 mil in space and decided to go with Timmy/Bullock/WCS/Brown instead.  Its even less valuable this coming offseason when you look at the meager free agent class that will be available.  If Kyrie walks for nothing, its hard to see a path to contention during Luka's current contract.  

That's why angling for cap space right now is crazy.  They are all in on Kyrie.  The only way Kyrie leaves and they are not totally screwed is a S&T for assets, and that means no cap space anyways.
