Even if Drummond goes for scraps, teams like Atlanta or Boston can offer better scraps than the Mavs. The debate on fit seems moot because of that. I also wouldn't trust reporters with ties to high ranking officials. That could all just be front office smoke and mirror tactics. That said, I'd take him for peanuts (a package including Bruson, GSW pick and whatever else to make the salaries work).
Randomness and playing catch up on the trhead:
-A lot of talk about Powell around here of late. Not sure why he isn't pulling the trigger from three, but he needs to let it fly if teams are going to give him as much space on his top of the key screens. I can't imagine he gets traded. The Mavs love him. Combine his new contract and his regression in play and I can't imagine extracting positive value from him. Any competent team looking at a trade package from Dallas is going to ask for Maxi instead of Powell.
-Speaking of Maxi, he and DFS are quickly climbing list of players you refuse to trade unless they are getting back the 3rd banana to go alongside Luka and KP.
-Said it in the other trade thread, but we really need another big in the rotation. I don't hate the Alex Len idea floated in this thread.
-Saw the Bogdanovic mention, I just don't see enough bullets in the clip to land him.
