I'm sorry, do we all have short term memory. What occurred last year was an abject failure. This year? The Mavs actually kept their guy (on a reasonable risk averse deal). Signed back a key knockdown shooter on again an incredible value deal, and we're decrying this the same old Mavs? Sorry I don't buy it
I agree we still need to find a starting 3 and center. Everyone has to take a deep breath and chillax
Just difficult to imagine how they can get there. We obviously don´t know what is going on and they might have one or even multiple trade options but as of now the Mavs lost the full MLE. Taking them out of the bidding war for the few remaining targets. Add free agents signing contracts left and right. Reducing the number of interesting options. And you have the usual eleventh hour reactions.
