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

[Chicagojk]

Who is the 3rd starter? THJ, Wood, Bullock, Green? Doesn´t really matter, cause that "4th" starter needs to be better than them for the Mavs to become a contender during a Doncic/Kyrie era.

Get rid of Kyrie. Look at the history of the big trade:

Suns/Nets, unless Suns win a Championship BUST, the play of Bridges alone and Durant´s continuing physical struggles are enough already to say the Nets didn´t lose the trade.
Wolves/Jazz, the rookie play of Kessler alone already makes the trade a wash.
Mavs/Nets, certainly hasn´t made us any better or them any worse, and they have a 1st round pick and no 200/4 headache.
Clippers/Thunder, SGA is a better player than PG13 right now. 
Cavs/Jazz, both teams look exceptional, because Mitchell is young.
Lakers/Pelicans, without the bubble fluke the Pelicans run away with that trade and AD was young, too.

The recent evidence suggests these lopsided major trades for players in their 30s usually are a major bust for the team allegedly getting the best player.

Would you rather have Russell, Vanderbilt, Beasley, Bamba, Hachimura or Kyrie?

Cost wasn´t that different.

GTFO if you can, but I´m not sure the Lakers are dumb enough to trade for Kyrie. They were not a month ago.

I want that 9th pick.

There were two players I said would be perfect next to Luka.
#1 was Jaylen Brown long before you all still said Mavs should turn down Brown/Smart for Porzingis.
#2 was Anthony Edwards before he even played a college game.

How good would one of these look with Luka right about now, Antonio?

?

I feel the same way about Taylor Hendricks. Get this kid.

May not have a 3rd best player type.  May need to make due with 4, 5, 6 best players for the short term.  It would help greatly if the player they target this summer fills in their weaknesses.  

There is probably a good argument for not resigning Kyrie.  I just can’t get there.  For better or worse this trade was made for the long run.  Keep Hardy though.  He may either help lesson the blow if Kyrie goes crazy or if you eventually decide to move Kyrie in a few years.  Plus, if the mavs try to get cute this summer, they no doubt bungle it.

I haven’t even begun looking at the late lottery picks yet.  Just can’t get there yet.
