Trade & FA 2023-24: Stein-Ingram Trade Inevitable| LAL Want Lebron Back On Any Terms

[Winter]

The most frustrating thing about reading various outlets, including this one, during this offseason is hearing all of the theories on players that the Mavs are supposedly chasing or are interested in.  In a single, concise post, GoP has illustrated the massive issue that too many people are ignoring.  I don't want to hear another word about freaking Bruce Brown.  Who cares?  We need a frontcourt.  Period.  ALL assets should be used in targeting that area of need at this time.  The MAVS are stacked at the 1-3 - for now and into the future.  

I think the problem with this is that you are assuming a static position on the Mavs roster. If there is a solid rumor about acquiring Bruce Brown, it may very well coincide with a Mavericks trade of one or more wings outgoing in a trade - like Thj or Bullock. We don't know what the Mavs are thinking or how they want to shuffle the deck, but if the Mavs acquire a center in a trade, they will likely have to let go of a wing. Hence, we may need a replacement.

This is all about upgrading the roster.
