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

[SleepingHero]

So, what players this offseason could fit into that distressed asset category?  Any of the below guys?  Anybody move the needle?  Any of them come with attached assets to get off money?

Good analysis and I agree there seems to be a trend where the Mavs are swooping in as psuedo market makers and buying up distressed assets although not necessarily rehabbing any sort of value lol.

To add to your list, I'd keep an eye on Clint Capela. Hawks have Okongwu angling for minutes and Capela's health has been a huge let down. In fact we can stay with the Hawks theme and throw in Bogdanovic as well. 

Draymond Green is another player I think will be on the move this summer. I think Portland will go after him pretty hard too. I hope the Mavs find a way to convince him to hitch a ride here because I think his leadership is exactly the spice the Mavs are missing.

Buddy Hield was dangled in trades the entire summer last year so I can see the Pacers trying again this year, although I wouldn't call him a distressed asset. 

Someone sneaky that isn't necessarily in rumors but I think is available is Lu Dort. OKC is going to have 15 bajillion picks coming up, along with Chet Holmgren. Rookie Jaylen Williams is starting to blossom a bit for them and he plays the same position as Dort. I can easily see OKC trading Dort for some vets instead of picks to go and compete next season.
