Cubes was very specific in his description -- someone 6'8" or taller who can handle the ball a bit.
You guys may scoff about it, but there's another clue -- something Kuz said about the Mavs needing another piece to contend. Yes that's pretty audacious of him to say it, but it's a clue nonetheless.
It wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility, Cubes and Kuz had talked about this privately.
Kuz is the primary target all along.
BUT.. I'm just hoping Cubes is smart enough on where to draw the line.
Kuz is NOT worth a FRP+Green, not even worth a FRP+Omax.
I wouldn't even include Maxi in any deal for him.
Unlike most here, I am not enamored with the FRP, I think JG can get you a minimum of 1 FRP, if the Mavs really need to get one. I trust Omax too to be useful next season.
I'd start with GW+Holmes+Hardy+2 SRPs.
But could go as far as THJ+GW+Hardy+FRP (already an overpay but this is the limit of what the Mavs should give)
No JG, No Omax, No Maxi in any deal.
