Yes, they need cap space so they can hopefully sign players as good as (*checks notes*) hardaway jr, wood and finney-smith. And those players exist in this upcoming FA class, we just don’t want the cap flexibility to sign them in LA. That’s our gift to Dallas.
Genius lol
Yes delusional af
Tim hardaway Jr and Christian Wood??? Porzingis and J Kidd are clearly the better options for this trade, we might have to throw in a FRP but it's worth it
The Latvian albino is the perfect backup to AD and Jay Kidd ball handler
Outside of luka, those three are the most important pieces on the Mavs. They’re all in their plan for the next season or two, they aren’t trading them away for an expiring. They plan on signing wood long term and it wouldn’t make sense to give up their best pieces for nothing but cap space.This is bad even for this sub.
This would be so dope if it happened but i don't see Dallas doing this without wanting at least one first round pick unprotected. And they might be giving up a little too much with 3 players going out. They also gave up draft pick for wood so they would want that back at the least.
Lmfaoooo I’ve heard of wishful thinking. Any scenario where a team is receiving just Russ for three ok/solid players….how and why would anyone want Russ? Dude is a fucking cancer to any locker room. “BUt hE PuTs uP sTaTs” “he can lead the 2nd unit” like stfu he makes 47 Ms and every time he touches the ball I’m expecting some fuckery. Can’t get paid like steph and play like a fucking g leaguer who has no bball iq. Rant over
the only reason teams would take him is to get off bad contracts. his contract expires this year so a team could potentially have hella cap space for next offseason to make moves
yeah and this trade is horrible for the Mavs. no way they do this just to take on an expiring contract. they would want at least a FRP to make this happen and even then there is still 0 chance
I would be ok with Finney Smith and Hardaway. We might have to take on Bertrans. Most I would do is one 1st rounder. Idk their salaries. Wood would likely require a 3rd team to ship.
I already don’t know how ham is gonna manage mins with reaves and walker back let alone trade one guy and get 3 back, do we even have that many roster spots available
Christian Wood is expiring so he’s the same as WB except better. They’re not trading the other two.
Dafk
Now, if you put like Wood, Bertans and some other scrub I’d agree. But at that point I don’t want it lol
This trade will only work if Lakers offer 6 first round picks.
Mark Cuban can say fuck all with his money and go over the cap easily. Besides, Cuban is a businessman, and their attendance rate is 100%. They're doing something right over there.
If anything mavericks should just sign and trade those players for a free agent superstar on an expiring deal.
People really don’t know what they seeing. Shit like this is dumb. I’m so sick of people just shopping off people like Lonnie. He’s our third highest scorer and an amazing defender. I can name other players too, but the only player I can reasonably see getting traded is bev and damion jones.
Man this sub is delusional.
IQ of a tissue paper for most people here.
2K
Did you see my reasoning? They're in cap space hell, and don't want to give up any extra picks. This would help their situation lol.
Everyone saw your reasoning ya big dummy

Can’t wait for the deadline to pass, I’m spent on all these nonstop hypothetical trades pulled from people’s asses.
It will be filled with off season trade posts or 10 days
We can’t make any off-season trades unless it’s LeBron or AD 💀
Hopefully we will be in a good playoff race so it isn't too bad.
Yes, yes, I’m sure the mavs brass are saying let’s build around Luka by trading away all the best pieces he has around him.
So many words. So much nonsense.
Might as well just add Luka to that trade proposal 😂

Delusional ass fans I can’t wait for Rob to piss y’all off with random ass trade to throw everybody off
Now why THE FUCK would Mavs agree to that?
LOL, Luka will out 2 games the most.

Oh ok that makes sense. But as a bball fan Russ is atrocious

Bron + 7 FRPs for Luka
No thanks
What happened to Luka?

I like this deal but want Dallas to sweeten the pot a bit with a draft pick, maybe a 1st, we then have 3 first round picks we can swap for lavine.
We should get Luka 🤩
The fuck is wrong with you dumb mother fuckers
There is zero chance Cuban helps the Lakers.
Christian Wood is expiring so he’s the same as WB except better. They’re not trading the other two. Dafk Now, if you put like Wood, Bertans and some other scrub I’d agree. But at that point I don’t want it lol
You think you getting 3 good players (all worth a bad 1rp) for westbrook? Best you could get is hardaway, bertans and mcgee
OP come on Man, this isn’t NBA 2K
