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

There is sooo much change from year to year much less 4 years from now. Build a competitive team while having two top 15-20 players.

Had the Mavs used the #10 pick, like 98% of us thought the would, on a veteran win-now piece I would be on the side of holding onto every future pick possible. But they instead added two FRP’s this year with high ceilings (and high floor’s imo). That alone offsets some risk of using a pick 4 years from now on a win-now piece.

Also like IGT pointed out. I want them to be as good as they can RIGHT NOW and again next year, etc for these 6 young guys to get all the playoff experience necessary. To make Luka happy, competing and knowing the FO is doing everything they can each year to try and win.

I’m ready for Cuban to open his pocketbook and start doing everything he can to build a team around a top 5 player - EVERY year!
