Don't know much about the guy but must be a beast on defense because he is a career 28% 3pt shooter.
How in the world would that guy fit Rick's offense?

really not a fan of that guy, but hey if it costs almost nothing cant blame them that much.

what really bothers me with him is he had huge potential going in, dude is extremely athletic and blessed with a good frame, 6'7 and 7' wingspan 230-240lbs. they labeled him as a hardworker then why in the world cant he fix that stupid looking jumpshot.
sorry but i dont believe what others say that shooting ability is something youre born with. I strongly believe that shooting, like with most things can be improved, ofcourse what varies is the level of effort needed for different individuals. Like for example if luka wanted to shoot 85% of his FTs he needs 2-3hrs of work everyday, it also possible for MKG to shoot at that percentage but he needs
x2-3 of effort exerted and has to be at the gym for 5-7hrs just shooting.

MKG flat out sucks.

Absolute truth, I'd take a flier on MKG. See how he fairs trying to guard Kawhi, Harden, lebron, PG13, etc. Broekoff is utterly useless and has no place in the NBA

Even at this point, Dion Waiters probably has more value than Broekhoff. If Waiters can come here for the minimum, I wouldn't be opposed to it.

Waiters is a head case. MKG is by all accounts, a good professional. With good coaching, he could become our new Al-Farouq Aminu or at the very least, a good backup for DFS

This team has 10000 offensive players, 1 rim protector and 1 perimeter protector. Adding 1 guy who is dedicated to play defense only, probably wouldn't be the end of the world.

At least i don't see any point in adding another strictly offensive player. If KP can sustain his efficiency when Luka comes back and the trio of DFS&THJ&Curry continues to produce numbers, then this team is more than good enough to compete even in playoffs. But with no dedicated defensive players they won't get far.

Sorry I wasn't able to clear that up. I meant if we got BOTH MKG and Waiters by waiving Broekhoff and another guy.

Waiters has probably some loose screws in his head. But he is very similar to Deshawn Stevenson. The more scoring options we have, the better it seems.

Ahh I see. Well both are clear upgrades over Lee and Broekhoff, but it sounds like Waiters will likely get a shot with a contender (Lakers), so I’m not sure why hed come to Dallas

The key difference though is Stevenson was a difference maker on the defensive end, Waiters is not that. he has the tools, but he doesnt try or care.

But anything is better than Broekoff, I'd rather have some guy on the roster from some random country just for the marketing ploy than have Broekoff on this team. He brings nothing at all

I think Dallas has to start shopping Delon Wright for a more usable player in the summer. They have to maximize the money they gave Wright. Seth Curry and Jalen Brunson will be more than enough to fill his spot. Maybe package Delon for another starting caliber SF. We need more scoring from the wing position.

MKG may struggle to break the regular rotation as he can't shoot but come the playoffs he's a body to throw at the elite offensive guys.

I imagine he plays 4 alongside KP and with THJ or Curry. That way there are enough floor stretchers and he can set screens and cut to the hoop.

Although Wright’s defense is overrated, at least he is someone can throw to the opposite team scoring guard, Curry/Brunson are too bad defensively.....

I got it! We should trade for Otto Porter Jr. We'll have the best team (on paper)!!

Wright was a Plan C knee jerk trade after missing out on Kemba and Danny Green. He was never part of the plan but only to save Cuban's ego.

With Luka and THJ having the starting PG and SG spots locked down, you will never get value for money for Wright until his deal runs out in 2 years. Considering how Carlisle and Brunson's dad are good buddies, he will also be fighting for backup playing time.

The best thing is to ship him out, along with Justin Jackson for a starting caliber SF. So we can get more scoring out of that position. DFS can come off the bench. 6 pts out of that SF spot is just too low considering the top Western teams are getting 25+ pts and really good efficiency out of their SF spots. IMO that's the only area for improvement and why I wanted someone like Covington or Aaron Gordon to shore it up.

Before the season, we needed a PG, a 3&D wing and a mobile rim protector.
After the offseason, we needed a PG, a 3&D wing and a mobile rim protector but got into a lot of "nice to have" depth which wasn't a must by any means.

I'd like at least to close one of our needs in the upcoming offseason.

How would feel about adding Paul Milsap and Montrezl Harrell in the off season?

Montrezl would be our Bam Adebayo and I'd love it. Milsap on a one year deal ain't bad too.

Forget about Harrell, we don’t have cap space to sign him. No interest to Milsap......
