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

This. All I know is that this is NOT too much to pay for Dwight Powell. He’s going to make in 3 years just a smidge more than he made THIS PAST SEASON. 

Further, he IS the Mavs’ locker room culture right now, especially if you trade THJ. That has been headed south since they let Brunson walk, and Powell can probably really help with the youngsters. Some will roll their eyes about this comment, but I’m sorry, it’s important.

Nothing to complain here about the signing individually. But right now - as always - we’re looking at another year of Dwight being our starting Center by a landslide.

That wasn’t good enough three years ago. Knowing how the Mavs tend to fumble their offseasons I don’t see how this suddenly changes.

As of now I’m expecting all of Bullock, Kleber, Powell, Hardaway being back with Holmes and Curry being their veteran additions who will play a ton.

At that point - as always - you gotta wonder what they think they’re building towards with that barrage of JAG-types on the roster.
