Dallas Mavericks 2023/24 Trade thread

[41Dirk41]

Yea Mirris is useless. Give that roster spot to someone more deserving

Morris and Powell were the most no sense resign i have seen in 30 years of basketball, mostly for a team with bigs rotation problems.

[41Dirk41]

What about Jerami Grant?

I know he has a horrible contract but if Portland would do THJ/Maxi for Grant would that interest anyone?

Grant should be an upgrade for sure but those 3,8 rebounds per game scare me a lot... Grant Williams averages 3,7 and he is blasted for this.

I think Portland wants at least 1 FRP for him, they no need THJ and always injuried Kleber.

I’d rather pay more for Kuzma then Grant

I think he would be underused in the Mavs, I think the same about Siakam/Grant, too good and expensive for what we need... we need high-caliber 3D role players, a backup center with a different profile than what we have and an extra handler in the framework of what we lost with SD...

I wouldn't for either. Both are much more offensive help than defensive/rebounding help. Our glaring weaknesses are rebounding and interior defense. With our limited assets imo we gotta go after those holes. Would someone like Gafford be available?

[daoneandonly]

Kyle Kuzma just pats stats and doesnt offer much else. He's also lacking in basketball iq as he has tunnel vision, thats not a guy you go after. Its true we need more defense and rebounding, but the Kings aren't exactly a defensive juggernaut and they are darn good, so an offensive guy who can also rebound wouldnt be the worst thing. But not Kuzma.

[BeiBeau]

Don’t listen to Daoneandonly’s fake news about nobody liking Green. You can delete your posts all you want but you’re in my head rent free BB **kisses**. There is interest in Green. So the Yurtseven/Nance Jr. For Green/Holmes terrible idea he suggest is only so bad because he’s the one who doesn’t value green at all, not the other teams in the league. Love ya bud!

I've liked what I've seen of Greenn in the past. I'd still want seconds or Hardy in that deal, though (not commitinng to how many, etc., those areas where marginal value needs to be made up are hard). But yah, in principle he is a plug and play bench player who is young and has a clear role of hit open shots, move the ball if not open & off of straight line drives, play solid defense. Seems like a nice long-term backup to Ochai.

If we could get Green and Hardy in a deal I'd be excited. Financially I am not sure if it works with all three guys from Utah (to avoid having to cut one) or not. Now, let's go call our gms

Well, it was also bad because of how terrible an olynyk for Holmes + Green swap is on our end. But with Collins going out the financials are less concerning. There's a bit of value to be made up between Green/Holmes and Collins, but not a ton. Idk I like Green the player off the bench.

I would argue that, considering you have admitted that you hate Josh green, that he is your enemy.

From your perspective he certainly curses and mistreats your basketball team which, considering that you have had a realgm account since the early 00’s is something important to you.

Therefore, I think this should all apply to Josh Green as well.

Love you BB.

If Exum can makes 3s we can trade Green for a backup 4/5, i think this is the plan.

[tleikheen]

Exum has been out for 2 yrs proving he can stay healthy and is now back in the NBA and still has great length and athleticism for a PG.
Most here ,being clueless thought Exum left the Euros from being a stud to coming over to the Mavs to be a cheerleader at the end of the bench just to be on a NBA roster again.
He has 31 assists to 5 turnovers and gone from less than 8 mpg a to starting his 1st game and having a plus 40 points his 1st game as a starter.
He is the plus /minus and hustle leader on the Mavs in his 1st 20 games and now is getting ready to be a solid player for the rest of the season for the Mavs. Give him credit ,whos to say he's not going to start stroking the ball as he gets more comfortable playing in the same lineup with Luka and Kyrie'.
I think the catch and shoot lineup becomes the 2nd unit with Wms,Green and Hardaway lineup and the run and gun lineup will be Luka Kyrie and Exum lineup.

Who is that 4/5? any interest in the Hawks Wings? Bey/Hunter? are they attainable?

He's talking about Brian Cardinal!

[Heezzi]

Josh Green's terrible BBIQ is why he should get traded but that extension makes it hard.

I don't think... Achiuwa and Boucher are low cost targets, i would like to trade for Naz Reid because Minny pay 110M for 3 centers and maybe they will dump him.

[tleikheen]

Big forwards are really hard to come by and those that have been talked about in rumors true or not., Kuzma ,Hachimura, Grant look unattainable by the Mavs.
Ive seen a couple of stories of Philadelphia interested in Kuzma to replace Harden. Lakers are starting to play big and Hachimura fits their thinking. With regards to Grant ,we saw Portland doesnt need any of our best assets. Green or Hardy .
If big forwards are hard to come by then a younger Center would be good to replace everyone not named Lively on the Mavs .
Daniel Gafford would be the guy to target. He's mobile with a 7'2" wingspan. He's another rim runner for Luka,Kyrie and Exum could utilize. Wizards might be the one team looking for young guards such as Hardy and Green , A win win for both sides.

[Mavrelous]

I'd roll the dice with Chuma Okeke, a big wing that's out of his teams plans...
