The only picks here that make sense are for Bogdan Bogdanovic and Dorian Finney Smith but in no way should the Mavs give up people like Hardy. He keeps mentioning a need for a secondary ball handler in the 2nd unit. We already have that in Hardy and Exum. The Mavs had a great season but, to take the next step, they should add someone like: Péjå Stojákövic 6'10" Marcus Camby 6'11" Dennis Rodman 6'8" Steve Kerr 6'3" and Ben Wallace 6'9" And perhaps Maxi Kleber is their Péjå and Oliver Omax Prosper can be our Dennis Rodman but they need to replace the dead weight on the team that contributed so very little: THJ Morris Kleber A J. Lawson And, the young developmental guards. I totally trust the management of the Mavs to get the necessary pieces [2 more 3 points shooters, 2 more bigs and 3 great defensemen]. They can play 10 deep on everyone except the Celtics. Against them, only 9 can hold up: Luka Kyrie P.J. Brown The 2 centers Dante Green Hardy But, to contend with the elite A-N-D defeat Boston in a 7-game series...they must improve on the backend. Release and replace the other 6 players with big, physical tall, defensive minded players + a 6'11" Péjå Stojákövic type player that rebounds and can hit the trey + an unselfish pair like Rodman and Wallace that will do the dirty work...and another 3 point guy that will hit 50% from deep. With that they'll win 60+ games and beat Boston. Luka absolutely must learn to play without the ball in his hands. The "Triangle" offense could be an option. More emphasis must be placed on perimeter defense. Derek Lively needs to shoot the trey more; Dante Exum should be the leader of the 2nd unit, the QB and facilitator. Hardy needs to be our "microwave" [Vinnie Johnson] off the bench. They need 2 big, beefy "enforcers" willing to kick ass if needed to protect Kyrie and Luka when frustrated teams get physical with them. Generally speaking, for elite excellence, they need: 1.) toughness with an edge à la Rodman & Wallace. 2.) 50% excellence from the 3 à la Pèja and Kerr. 3.) Play up tempo, share the ball and rebound ferociously. 4.) Develop a 2nd unit led by Exum with Hardy scoring but with at least 2 great defenders. 5.) Find 2 guys for enforcers that put the fear of God in opposing players who even think about tripping Luka or "accidentally" hitting Kyrie in the face. 6.) Have a come to Jesus meeting with Luka: Get in shape/stay in shape No pouting/fighting refs Work on 3 pt & midrange Lead... To be clear...he wants to be Pistol Pete Maravich [score 40 ppg with 2 assists while teammates watch] but N-E-E-D-s to be Magic Johnson [working the refs, a coach on the floor, calling plays, making sure everybody else gets points and touches the ball...while purposely holding back unless we get down by 15 or down to 5 seconds on the time clock or it's the last 5 minutes of the game.] 7.) Study Magic, Isaiah and Stockton. Strive 2B the '96 Bulls, the '86 Celtics, the '76 Trailblazers or the '72 Knicks with a perfect blend of offense & defense...but the 2004 Pistons were the epitome of what we should try to become with 5 unselfish players led by 2 scorers, a bunch of role players and a savvy coach.

Maxi, Thj, Josh has to go in my opinion. Those 3 to me aren't playing to their contract value, and combined, it's 39.8 million... that's 40 MILLION OF WASTED MONEY! Me personally, I'd call Washington again to see if Deni avdija is available. He's a 2 way wing, on a great contract that's declining. Next, call the Bulls if they want Maxi for Jevon carter, a solid 2 way backup pg. And then salary dump Thj. I think in this scenario opens up about 14 million, clearly enough for DJJ

Probably Brooklyn, but it's pretty close. They might need a first round pick swap as well.

They don't need to throw ALL of those guys into a trade. Mainly two of THJ, Green, and Kleber is enough for a $30M player. I think their 2031 first-round pick will also be valued by a lot of teams.

It would be extremely disciplined of the Mavs to trade Irving now. He’s a 13 year vet and could be on the decline soon. I wouldn’t be opposed to capitalizing on him now and getting stuff for him, but I doubt they move him after making the Finals.

@YossiGozlanNBA the Mavs are less than $2M over the luxury tax right now. Couldn’t they just do something like trade THJ+ draft pick(s) for Jordan Clarkson (who makes $2.1M less) which would put them under the luxury tax and allow them to sign DJJ for the full MLE?
@ARWINMACHADO2 ай бұрын
well Clarkson is a poor defender too, so no for me
@YossiGozlanNBA2 ай бұрын
Unfortunately that’s not how the MLE works. A team gets designated with a particular MLE depending on where they finish in relation to the apron after using it. So if they use a portion of the MLE now, they’d be over the first apron, and technically have the smaller $5.2M one. They’d need to get way below the first apron to use the full MLE since using it would hard cap them from exceeding it.
@Dzad002 ай бұрын
@@ARWINMACHADO They held Boston to 107 or less in every game. Defense wasn’t the problem, they have enough defenders. The problem was they couldn’t score enough bc the entire offense relies on Luka and Kyrie. They need I more guy that can get a bucket on his own WAY more than another defender.
@Dzad002 ай бұрын
@@YossiGozlanNBA I’m not a salary cap expert so I could be wrong but it doesn’t seem like they are as far off as you make it seem. They are about $5M under the 1st apron now, trading THJ and Lawson’s non-guaranteed for Clarkson would save them another $4M, so that $9M number the 1st apron and they would be under the luxury tax. What is the full MLE like $12M(ish)? They could put Hardy and in trade, maybe cut Exums non-guaranteed, something small and they would be right there at the 1st apron still.
