So, if we can agree on THAT, don't you think it's possible that those expiring contracts (here because of keeping the space option open) might come in SUPER handy soon? Don't you think it's possible that something even better than Gordon might shake loose?
Not really because we could have done all those things this summer. My biggest fear that has already been mentioned by other posters is that the Mavs give up Richardsons and THJs cap holds because they want to catch a bigger fish. Both sign with other teams and the Mavs end up scrambling for the leftovers after Giannis signs somewhere else.
I want Cuban and Donnie to commit. They could have done it last summer. They could have done it this summer. Now they are forced to do it next year. After Luka signs his max extension the Mavs won´t have the capspace (unless they want to give up quality role players).
I really do not like the non "Giannis" options next year and don´t want to rely on "something even better shaking loose" because that´s not a given.
When it comes to Gordons value the Magic rejected The "RoCo offer" this summer. They want more than 2 1sts. Don´t think any team is willing to do that.
