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

[Scott41theMavs]

I’ve seen in several places that they’re asking for two 1sts for DFS, one for O’Neal.

Well, the Mavs 1) don't have two firsts, and 2) are interested. 

I doubt that 1) the Mavs are planning on going out and acquiring another first by trading away live basketball assets, and also 2) that the "asking price" means that they gave up and are currently crying in their beer that they can't get DFS.

DFS isn't worth a first. He's overpaid by the standards of any team that doesn't have his biggest fan as their franchise player. Nico and Lindsay will find a way.

BTW, even the Mavs giving a first for DFS when there are better players who will go for a first would be GMing malpractice. Brooklyn's dreamin'.
