2023 DRAFT: Mavs take Lively, OMP, sign Mike Miles to 2-way, sign Jordan Walker

[Chicagojk]

I see him as a PJ Tucker with better offense and lesser defense. He plays bigger than he is, he’s got that dog in him, he’s young and is ready to break out with the right opportunity. Will he is the question? If the Mavs are having that deep a conversation about him, I’d suggest they think so.

It is trouble seeing a sign and trade that works though.  If you look at Boston's recent trades, they have been deliberate and have gotten good value back.   I think anything MLE level, they match and then see what they do at a later date.   I think Williams is looking over MLE.  So maybe it needs to be at a # that scares Boston away.   Like 15-17 million per year.   

This is where relationships come in.   I think Williams will need to say he wants to be in Dallas and it is his preferred location.  I think this could bring Boston to the table to at least get something back. Rather than him signing with a team with cap space.
