Kidd, Luka and Kyrie having meeting alone looks like interesting development too.


He talked about longterm in Boston as well, we all know how that ended.

I think his options are more limited now, he's much less sought after personality than in his BOS days, it's also why he was able to be had this cheap.
Defense wins draft lotteries!

5 points in the last 7:07. That is sad.

The rest of the roster can be completed with MLE, but they need to get a top 10 pick to have something to trade, they have Bullock and Bertans contracts as fillers.



Jerami Grant looks like Christian Wood 2.0 the more I watch him. Portland fans also don't think he's playing defense anymore.

I'm judging him by his DEN days :)
The archetype is 6'7"-6'9", long, athletic, not too skinny and light with some stength (main knock on DFS IMO).



If the Mavs pull off a miracle and somehow trick Indiana into giving them Myles Turner, I think Kleber's defense should be acceptable at PF.

C- Turner / Powell / Mcgee
PF - Kleber / Bertans
SF - Doncic / Bullock
SG - Green / THJ
PG - Kyrie / Hardy

I think getting Turner (despite the pressumably high cost) fixes a lot of things. Then S&T Wood to whatever team wants to pay him his price tag and get a bit of value there too.

If Kyrie walks, Hardy starts at PG and use that momey to sign Khris Middleton if he opts out of Milwaukee. That guy fits Luka's style of play too.
