If he goes to Por and plays lights out, however, I will admit I was wrong on that one. I do think there is a decent chance that will happen too. With it being a draft day trade, the draft could have gone a completely different direction too (adding another good wing/SF talent at #12) which might have helped make that offseason timeline a success as well.
I think the Mavs really killed that deal because the Suns wouldn’t also accept McGee’s contract.
