Buyout Market: DAL officially signs MKG | Broekhoff waived

[DanSchwartzgan]

Do you think Moe Harkless gets bought out? That would be a dream

Duffy.

We don’t have any MLE $ left, so I believe all we can offer is the minimum (not much help in buyout negotiations).  It would be a good tryout opportunity for the MLE this summer.

Great catch.

Marvin Williams bought out.

Marvin Williams bought out.

Would be a perfect fit but I think the Mavs are not the 1st option for any of those guys. We are not good enough to attract ring chasers.

Now that is a guy the Mavs should take a chance on, especially given our need for bigs. Still only 22 years old. Shooting 44% from three this year on two attempts per..........................month.

I think he could function in our system. One year he was shooting 75% from inside 5 feet for a season and another 37% from three. Given he´s basically shooting 2% from everywhere else his overall numbers always look bad, but his limited skillset is compatible with our system. And we need another big body. 10 day contract can´t hurt.

According to Wojo. MKG finalizing buy out with Hornets and Dallas is a top candidate to sign

YESSS!!!

I LOVE this because MKG has an EIGHT year track record of having a positive on/off +/-. He has NEVER had a negative for a season. Put him on the court. It may not be pretty but your team will be better for it.

[Scott41theMavs]

It's kind of pathetic how desperately we need MKG's size and defense.

[Fuerza1]

I love me some MKG; he was actually my favorite player over Anthony Davis on the 2012 Kentucky championship team. 

He will be another useful body here but don't imagine a significant role. I rather see him take all of Jackson's minutes but you know live and die by the 3 or you rot on the bench.

[BigDirk41]

I'll feel better about the TDL if we can sign MKG. He could become a quality player for the Mavs. He's never been in a winning environment as a pro.

Amazing what a little patience brings. SO GLAD we didn’t give up one of our second tier guys or GS second rd pick for a rental

FUN FACT:

MKG is YOUNGER than DFS.

[omahen]

Omg, how deep you have fallen. Everyone celebrating MKG signing like best move ever. Guy played 12 minutes whole season for mediocre Charlotte...

[SleepingHero]

I like MKG. I don't know if he's better for this team than Lee though. Just chemistry wise and shooting wise.

We desperately need another defender. I honestly think Jackson is super expendable right now. Wish we could've swung a deal for MKG+2nd rounder for Jackson.

MKG isn't a game changer, but he's exactly what this team needs. He's a versatile defender that never really found a role in Charlotte. He was compared as a Draymond-lite when Charlotte was stringing together wins 2 years ago. 

I'd be happy to have him, and celebrate that the Mavs potentially found another wing defender. I wouldn't be over the moon however. We need to create a roster spot. That means 1 of Lee/Jackson/Boban is on the way out. And I don't think MKG is significantly better than any of those players individually. 

Really makes you wonder why the Mavs made zero deals (not counting the willy one) before the TDL.

The measurable benefit of patience:

Don't see how patience plays a role here. Mavs would need to waive someone. So they're essentially "trading" whoever they waive for MKG. They're not getting him for free. If they had a roster spot open then there is an obvious benefit for patience. This isn't it though.
