Dallas Mavericks 2025 Trade thread -- Roster and Cap and the 1st page

[Mr B]

Hahahahahahaha Maxey or Cade for street clothes hahahahahahaha

Sure Mr B. They will accept it for sure.

That’s right make no effort to have a constructive conversation.

If you don’t think AD would be enough what would they have to include? Don’t be the reason the 3 or 4 people that are left posting here leave. Add to the conversation. I specifically asked what would you do? Would you target a PG? Gaining AD isn’t enough for Cade or Maxey what else would you include? Would you even target those PG’s? If not them then who?

Look my friend, your questions have no sense...simply we don't have enough assets for Cade or Maxey unless our foolish GM puts Flagg on the table.

This roster is not fixable like i said for months while you wrote nonsense posts. As always.

So you think no one on the roster has value and there is nothing they can do to improve the team. Got it.

Nico moron Harrison will never trade street clothes.

Nope, but it's useless explain it. You wouldn't understand it. As always.

He's right, let's have constructive discussions.
I agree AD doesn't return Cade, probabely not Maxey either.

Thank you. And if Cade or Maxey can’t be had who are some guys that can realistically be traded for?

And even though some may feel that AD has zero value I disagree. So as far as assets I would consider AD, Kyrie, PJ, Gafford, and however many 1st round picks they have.

Yeah,AD wont get you Cade...he might get you Maxey(since they have Edgecomb) ,but the Mavs would have to give Sixers at least two firsts...otherwise you'll be getting PG or Embiid+Jared McCain+2 first rounders..more realistic trade partner could be the Hornets(Lamelo) or CLE( Garland)...but CLE is over the second apron ,so more teams would have to be involved

Right now the Best thing DAL can do is keep the team till Kyrie gets back and try to find their game...AD is still a good Player,it Just sucks he came so out of shape (I Know,ironic,isn't it)...but that's Karma Nico

What worries me is that the Players looked as if they're on the verge of tears this two games....the vibes don't seem to be as good as they made it out to be

That’s what I believe will happen. They will keep the team together until the trade deadline. Personally I also believe they will get better. They will still need a playmaking PG but as they play more together they will gel.

[Mavrelous]

Before any AD trade, Nico has to go, he's not signing off on it, only when Nico is fired, AD can be traded, and of we're at the point Nico is getting fired, AD is probabely having a stinker of a season.

I read a suggestion that might have some traction....
Ivey/Harris/LeVert/2027 1st/2029 1st
For
AD

I think 2 first rounders is stretching it, but I'd like to see them do it for even 1 pick.

I definitely would love adding the draft picks. Breaking up AD’s contract into 3 smaller contracts also helps get the Mavs get that money off the books. I would still love to get a youngish PG that could grow with Flagg and Lively.

At some point the Spurs are going to get Fox back. I know they wanted someone to play next to Wemby. Would AD be enough to pry Harper (or Castle) off their hands. It would basically be handing SA the title but the Mavs would get their young PG and it would free up PJ to play the 4 and Flagg the 3.

I still think the Dumont will keep Nico around at least until the the new arena deal is finalized however if he doesn’t get this team to at least the WC Finals I don’t think he’ll make it to see the new arena. This team needs to win for them to get that new arena. The more they lose the closer Nico gets to being shown the door.

[Super Cooper]

I would love to move AD, but he's our star right now. Nico wouldn't trade him anyway, but especially not now. Only PJ logged more minutes last night.

Now the good news is if he balls out and stays healthy, some nice offers will come at the TDL.

So PJ, Gafford and 2 FRP’s? Are those their assets? Who do you think they could/would target in a trade?

[HMFFL]

Max Christie may get overlooked. I prefer him to get more shot attempts. I hope Kidd gets him more involved.

PJ should be untouchable. He's been their best player so far if you account both offense and defense. He's an excellent 3&D player.

If you do decide to blow it up then Gafford, AD, Hardy, Exum, Naji, DLo, Klay maybe even Kyrie, those are the first you focus on getting rid. Then you also have fillers like Powell and Martin.

Basically 80% of the roster are tradeable assets. Some are fillers while most obviously hold some value. The real question is, who would you want to keep and in what type of scenario. Just get rid of AD and hopefully upgrade the roster in the process? Or like i said, blow it up and start fresh around Flagg?

Max Christie may get overlooked. I prefer him to get more shot attempts. I hope Kidd gets him more involved.

Have you noticed how many times Klay got himself open? Dude is doing cardio while the rest of the team is mostly ignoring him. Granted he wasn't great so far but hoping that anyone will create offense and find open guys is an illusion at this point.

Most of the frontcourt needs to be moved. I am team PJ now after his extention. I believe the money is fair and PJ to me all about some Maverick basketball.

Watched the PHI vs CHA game. Got to witness Grimes hit the game winning 3 and put up 24 pts. That's 24 more pts then C. Martin has put up all season.

Luka in 2 games 92, all our starters 142.

Mavs have to trade Gafford, problem is, the whole league knows that. Mavs are not getting Pg for Gafford.

AD is not going anywhere with Nico, but even if he was offered, his price is all time low.

Yup. Amazing how much one man (Nico) can screw up in such a short time.

Seriously, where in the world is Martin anyway?

Nobody knows about Martin, nobody knows about Exum and they gave 2 years contract to Dlo and he plays 10 minutes per game, even though Kyrie is out.

They didn't get to 100 offensive rtg in any of first 2 games. Mavs are the most laughable organisation in Nba.

I’m just trying to get an idea of what everyone here would do. Sounds like there are really only two options from your point of view. Do nothing or completely blow it up.

So you don’t think AD has much value? You don’t think he would have value to a team like the Spurs (next to Wemby)? What about the Knicks (replacement for KAT, with KAT going to a 3rd team)? Seems to me there is at least 1 or 2 teams that would love to add AD.

Quentin Grimes still looking like a journeyman until he finds some stability. He should be signed longterm with us right now and hitting 3's at 40%.
