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

[dirkfansince1998]

If you don‘t have strong assets you need to maximize the ones you do have even more, for example the Midlevel Exception. 

The guys on the list all disappointed and were paid in a range where a solid Top 5-7 player on a competitive roster must be found, like Bullock was for a single season. I give Williams another chance because he’s young and has never been a starter before, but ideally you hit on all these acquisitions.

Of course. I just don't think you can make the case that the Mavs have to make a move at the deadline because their offseason moves tend to disappoint when I could just as easily point out that the Mavs burned the majority of tradeable assets in bad deadline trades.
