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

[ThisIStheYear]

The Mavs have tons of guards, tons of centers, and two forwards (Josh and THJ are guards and struggle against forwards). Luka can play forward, but I’d rather not. Maxi can play against plodding forwards these days for a few minutes. This idea that a center is needed is wrong. We’re okay with Maxi, Lively, Holmes, and Powell splitting 48 minutes. It could be 12 a piece for all I care. But we have 96 forward minutes and are about 48 minutes short on players with the size and speed combination to take that role. We failed last year mainly because the Josh and Bullock combo couldn’t get it done. We need a third, long, skilled, high quality forward.
