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

I think most are underrating THJ on this board.  He's not perfect but he shoots well from 3 on high volume and plays very solid team defense.  I think he's probably our 3rd best overall player and I don't understand why everyone is so desperate to trade him.  

I would rather have THJ on his current contract than Deandre Ayton on his.

I have always liked his attitude. He cheers for his teammates and he plays hard.  I don’t blame the Mavs for that contract extension either. We needed scoring at that time. The only knock on Hardaway is that he can be incredibly streaky and when his shot is not falling on a given night he won’t try other ways to score but will keep shooting.  

However most others you will get for him in a trade will have some glaring flaw too.  If not more flaws than him. It’s just that most fans tend to notice the flaws in someone they see every night while noticing only the strengths of someone comparable on another team whom they see only once in a while. Can’t just blame Mavs fans for that. Most fans are like that.
