Mavs Have No Interest In D'Angelo Russell In Sign And Trade 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sun May 28, 2023 12:58 pm

The Dallas Mavericks intent remains to re-sign Kyrie Irving in free agency this summer. There has been considerable speculation that Irving could head to the Los Angeles Lakers, but that would require the Mavs support to make that happen.


Los Angeles is unlikely to be able to create the requisite cap space to sign Irving. That would mean a sign-and-trade deal would have to be in place to get Irving to the Lakers.


The Mavericks reportedly have no interest in acquiring D'Angelo Russell in a dual sign-and-trade deal, where Russell is the primary player headed to Dallas. That makes it difficult to see how the Lakers would be able to match the salary to bring in Irving, outside of a three-team trade.

Lakers need to resign everyone and then look for trades in the season the team is good enough to win a lot of games and upgrades can be found later in the season.. What if Kyrie and Luka just doesnt work then maybe beasley mo and dlo and 2029 pick gets the deal done for Kyrie.. Or someone else becomes available that helps.. Lakers just resign everyone and hold tight you will win a lot of reg season games then make a trade for the playoffs later

They can get Kyrie for less than Beasley, Mo, DLO, and 2029 pick during the offseason. The mavs have no leverage if Kyrie decides to leave… they can workout a sign&trade for him with his preferred team or loose him for nothing which would basically mean they would likely be loosing Luka too.

Color me surprised. Dallas might think about it if they are getting Reaves.

Dallas doesn’t have to S&T if they are not getting anything of value back. Lakers have to provide value such as Reaves and a pick.

Leave and go where? What team is offering Kyrie the money he wants? Even the Lakers are only interested in signing him if he takes a paycut, they're not renouncing their roster to give him a max.

Nothing is certain and Kyrie hasn't decided anything yet but if he does decide to leave, knowing Kyrie, he could just hold out. The Mavs also can't afford to let him walk without getting anything. Luka would not allow them to go back to level 0 and start all over.

Also, why would the Mavs want to try to force Kyrie into signing with them if he does decide to leave? Makes no sense there. What will likely need to happen if he does want to go to the Lakers would be to get a 3rd team involved to take DLo. For example, the Bulls are in bad need of a point guard so there may be mutual interest there for DLo and the Bulls to be the 3rd team.

Spoiler:
I would rather not take anything back from LA there isn't anything that makes it worth doing a S&T that would have to match and tie up our cap space and that would be really stupid to do something like that.

Hachimura is worth considering along with Reaves but both players are free agents and with a bigger cap should Irving decide to leave that would mean that we could just offer more $$$ than LA could and there would be nothing they could do to stop us from taking both Rui and Austin.

I am pretty certain Irving is going to stay in Big D but with that 10th pick we can do some special moves and if you knew what we could do using that 10th pick you might be a believer in what the mavs will be able to pull off next season.

If Irving wants to win rings then he needs to play in Dallas with younger stars that are just now starting to align.

LA has older injured guys that won't see the finals again for a long time and that will have to be as part of better team they join in free agency because Mr Labia I mean La Bronda is not able to put the teams together like he used to.

His age has caught up with him. I hear he said he is planning to retire soon and old man Davis plays so few games a season now that he needs a wheelchair to get out on the court when the play offs come around.

Mavs can find the right pieces with extra cap on their own and that is way easier to do if they do not tie cap space up with a S&T taking back ill fitting pieces.

Why would Irving want to play in California after finally experiencing what its like to live among sane people that do not get vaccinated or think he is a bad person for refusing to risk his life getting vaccinated with an experimental cluster **** that we now know was a bioweapon meant to exterminate a lot of humanity created on purpose by the evil monsters of Satans favorite party the demoncraps.

The funding paper trail proves Obama created the gain of function programs that developed covid 19 in a NC lab using gain of function technologies and he also signed off on the funding that had them develop the technology that made the vaccines so deadly in the first place. That being the mRNA. their goal was to wipe out billions of people basically genocide. -

The whole theory of how the vaccine reprograms your cells DNA to make spike proteins was insane level stupidity. That would literally be the stupidest thing you could ever want to do.

Lets say it works and alters your DNA so cells start to spit out spike proteins that just means you turned your own body into a poison factory and say now it takes 40% of your bodies immune system to control that self inflicted poisoning as your cells are constantly creating spike proteins for decades or the rest of your shortened life.

Now your immune system is too weak to resist anything else that attacks you because it is too busy fighting off a lot of spike proteins and now you are very much more likely to get sick and die because you only have 60% of your immune system left.

This is exactly what we see happening now.

Experts have said everyone who got a real version of the vaccine and not a fake saline solution is losing on average about 25 years of their remaining lifespan. you can even check your batch at www.howbad.info to see how many people got killed that took the same batch of the vaccine you got injected with, you can find your batch # on your vaccine cards.

Kyrie is a hero to all of us who refused to take that evil poisonous clot shot.

After all of you guys that took the poison die then history is going to record that you were all the most idiotic and sofa king we Todded SFB morons to ever live in the history of humanity. Literally you all deserve Darwin awards for taking the vaccines.

Nobody should take LA's table scraps, especially not if they have a highly in demand fake superstar like Kyrie.

Irving for Rui + Reaves and Dallas is instantly a better team

Nobody wants D'Lo. He just finished with a minus 24.8 net rating and 38.2 TS% in the Conference Finals.

I don’t see what the big deal is about this story. Dlo doesn’t fit with the mavs. Neither does westbrook. I’m all for a sign and trade, if needed, for kyrie. However, there needs to be a third team to make it work. The lakers alone don’t have anything that makes it worth while.
