Those guys don't solve anything on the court. Hell, Morris makes you a decent amount worse. The benefit you'd get is redistributing the difference in salary elsewhere.
Bottom line with Harris is that he's a good player (particularly the version we saw post Harden trade), but just eats up way too much of your cap and makes it tough to add depth. Ideally you'd break that deal up into a multiple, quality rotation pieces.
Agree with all you said.
I also think Tobi is good but he’s obviously overpaid and obviously is tradeable or even benchable. If this is 2K, I’d start Reed or Bassey in Tobi’s place. Then have Tobi play 6th man.
But since I doubt Tobi will ever be a 6th man (for some unwritten rule i dont understand), I’d like to hear how the board’s idea is on how replacing Tobi for X will solve our defense and rebounding problem.
Some brought up the idea of replacing Green and Thybulle for a SF with more size. I think that will help but it still wont solve the problem.
Harris for Hardaway Jr. and Kleber. Maxi is a perfect 3&D big next to JoJo. He's a solid rebounder and shot blocker, a very good defender and a solid 3-point shooter (yes, this season was a bit poor). He's used as a spot-up shooter which would fit perfectly to our core, but he has also a solid athletic and a good BB-IQ. Tim Hardaway is a streaky shooter, but he can give you 20 points any given night, but he had also a down year. Aside the shooting, he's not giving you too much. The main reasons for that deal would be the massively smaller (but longer) contract from THJ and Maxi Kleber's great fit in our team.
Why would Mavs do it? Mavs run a heavy 1-2-3 offense and heavy 4-5 for defense
