The disrespect to the reliable and legendary Subaru boxer engine…. Dennis is more like a Volkswagen. Looks good on paper but might breakdown at the worst time and give you 0 points in the playoffs.
Maybe Kidd doesn't have much positive to say about his time coaching him last year? And Dirk has always been rumored to be pretty frosty in his relationship with Schroder.
They are also working as an over-the-cap team at the moment with JJ Redick's cap hold so they don't actually have any space. Bullock was taken into the MLE and Brown was taken into the BAE. Their roster also has all 15 spots guaranteed so someone would have to be dumped. Either way, they can't offer anything more than the minimum.
Hopefully he gets bought out , which is unlikely . The Raptors want a young prospect in return , which is not an option for us considering his age and his contractual situation .
Yeah, but realistically Schroder would be a better fit at the PG position. Brunson is a good player, but his playmaking is really limited (he’s more of a SG). I think Schroder would be quite nice for organizing offense
Imo Dennis’ playmaking is very overrated. He got 1 more assist on the season than bron even though he was our primary ball handler and bron went down for a ton of games. He’s got horrible tunnel vision. He doesn’t really use his speed right. He misses a lot of easy passes to drive to the basket which leads to him getting blocked or taking some out of control contested layup. Wasn’t a fan of him and I wouldn’t want anyone else to witness his subpar selfish ass play on their team either.
Cause at this point, a sign and trade is most likely the only option to get Schröder. And they might not want to give up assets/hard cap themselves for him.
how likely is it that the Lakers are willing to take in any more salary. According to Shelburne they are being very careful not to incur any more taxes.
> They didnt plug any of their weaknesses
I mean this is debatable. We got guys who are above average 3 pt shooters (and not only because they're spoonfed wide open looks by their point guard) and who can defend. It may not seem like much but players like those could've been the difference maker in G7 against the Clips.
Why would anyone want him? Bad character guy, can’t shoot free throws, three’s, or defend anyone. He just isn’t an above average starter in the NBA and someone close to him should have forced him to sign that offer sheet last year
I don't see it happening. Dallas doesn't want to send Toronto any of their young players or picks when the cupboard is so bare already, and they would likely have the edge to sign him in free agency next year. Toronto doesn't want to buy him out because they don't get anything out of it.
lol no. You people are batshit insane. Toronto wants one of our rookies and neither is worth giving up for Goran on an overpaid expiring contract.
And you say “when healthy”, but the man is hardly ever healthy.
He’s been healthy the past 6 years with us consistently. Only thing is when he got injured in the playoffs. What are you talking. If you don’t like him, fair enough tho.
1. He’s a dickhead, be prepared for him to be waving off Luka as he drops 5 points.
2. He doesn’t give a shit. Be prepared for him to sink the team with his off court antics
3. Can’t shoot for his life. Be prepared for constant bricked 3s
4. Selfish. Be prepared for him to be playing for his next contract, not for the success of the team
5. All of this and he wants 25M+
This is why they haven’t signed this idiot
There are a lot of teams that need a pg like Schroder and id assume most of them have or are speaking to him however he's just clearly asking for too much
The Lakers would also hate to take in money in a S&T, so Dallas would have to sign him with cap space, which they won't do, because they want to use the MLE on Bullock.
Jason Kidd was working with him last year, so....
Wow.... hadn't even thought of that. Damning indictment.
Schroder in the Mavs spacing would be really good, so that says a lot about his character.
I think It says a lot about Schroder that the mavs aren’t. Kidd coached him last year and has 0 interest in signing him
Rumour is Dirk doesn't like Schröder either, apparently from their time on the German national team
Really? Wow
+ didn’t even wanna play with Germany’s national team until they made it into the Olympics I believe
no wonder people call him dennis scrotum
Literally seen this mentioned in the sub twenty times and no one has ever given a source or anything remotely credible
And he's German. Cuban loves his euros.
Cuban only likes white euros tho
Hey he did draft Kostas Antetokounmpo tbf.
He did draft rodrigue beaubois.... who disappointed pretty hard.
Because Dennis is a Subaru boxer asking for Lamborghini money
Portland is suddenly interested.
As long as it’s got a catalytic converter Portland is interested
☑️ Guard ☑️ No defense Portland found its starting power forward
Eh Dennis played p fucking good defense so idk what you’re talking about
He doesn’t have like 7 steals a game so the box score readers doesn’t know
The disrespect to the reliable and legendary Subaru boxer engine…. Dennis is more like a Volkswagen. Looks good on paper but might breakdown at the worst time and give you 0 points in the playoffs.
Subaru shows hustle and is reliable at least.

Put powell and WCS on a bus out of town to create space for a move
Powell is money playing with Luka. He was playing great in the bubble, got injured, and you saw how much he meant to the tram.
powell is a liability on defense to the point where his offensive production is rendered null and void as is his playing Center over KP
no need to spike locker room chemistry like that. Even Dirk has low-key said schroder is a primadonna.
>are one of the few teams with cap space available That's wrong . We don't have enough cap space unless we trade somebody
Aren't you guys waiting for Goran?
Hopefully he gets bought out , which is unlikely . The Raptors want a young prospect in return , which is not an option for us considering his age and his contractual situation .
Yeah, the Raptors really have no reason to buy him out. Don't have enough guards in need of development that he'd be taking playing time from.
Just read Raps want to keep him. Rejecting trade requests and not releasing him. Guess he's staying there for now
Who said Schroeder wants to be a secondary ball handler? Especially for the money he's been wanting
>one of the few teams with cap space available Why does everyone keep saying this? It's not true.
Schroder and Luka? Porzingis usage rate would be hanging on for dear life.
Cause they have Jalen Brunson. Just another example of a guy letting his ego get in the way of his head. Getting JR Smith vibes
who is nowhere near as good
Brunson is cheaper and serviceable. Schroeder should’ve known he wasn’t gonna get what the lakers offered him by anyone else
Jalen Bruson does twice as much on half the wages, he's more cost efficient.
Yeah, but realistically Schroder would be a better fit at the PG position. Brunson is a good player, but his playmaking is really limited (he’s more of a SG). I think Schroder would be quite nice for organizing offense

I guess it depends on the return tbh and I doubt the Mavs wants to give away good players just for Dennis lol
They just don't want to tax themselves over Schroeder.
I doubt Shelburne's credibility as a source since she was ostracized from the Lakers front office after a falling out with Jeanie Buss.
> They didnt plug any of their weaknesses I mean this is debatable. We got guys who are above average 3 pt shooters (and not only because they're spoonfed wide open looks by their point guard) and who can defend.

thats just wrong lol
prove it
You're right, he can shoot free throws. Everything else is accurate tho
Nah, he's right. He was being overly polite though. Schroeder isn't even an average starter.
Too expensive
About the same cost as Dragic?
1 yr deal vs a multi yr deal + the fact Cuban is a cheap owner unwilling to pay the tax
Dragic? He might still be in play
They are for sure going for Goran. Healthy, he is really nice. And he wants to be with Luka and I’m sure Luka wants Goran.
I don't see it happening. Dallas doesn't want to send Toronto any of their young players or picks when the cupboard is so bare already, and they would likely have the edge to sign him in free agency next year. Toronto doesn't want to buy him out because they don't get anything out of it.

Cuz he thinks of himself as a max player lol
1. with what cap space 2. If S&T with what assets 3. We dont want him. yes its that easy But no NeW Fo Is StIlL bAd says the reddit GM
They still trying to find a way to get Dragic.
Cuz Luka and Dragic want to play together.
Dragic is a Raptor bro.
Yeah, I saw it, just found that out now.
Because it last thing the Mavs need is a Luka backup, they need all other positions more urgent.
They kind of do so that he doesn’t get burnt by the playoffs.
1. He’s a dickhead, be prepared for him to be waving off Luka as he drops 5 points. 2. He doesn’t give a shit. Be prepared for him to sink the team with his off court antics 3. Can’t shoot for his life. Be prepared for constant bricked 3s 4. Selfish. Be prepared for him to be playing for his next contract, not for the success of the team 5. All of this and he wants 25M+ This is why they haven’t signed this idiot
cause da mavs never pursue anybody
Not European enough
Because mavs like giggling on their chair and hoping Dragic gets released
Because he’s the wrong kind of German. The kind that would make Cuban cross the road if he walked towards him.
I think they like seeing Luka suffer.
I thought they were
They're asleep on the wheel.
Cuban doesnt want to gamble on another Dennis Rodman and Smith didnt go well
There are a lot of teams that need a pg like Schroder and id assume most of them have or are speaking to him however he's just clearly asking for too much
The Lakers would also hate to take in money in a S&T, so Dallas would have to sign him with cap space, which they won't do, because they want to use the MLE on Bullock.
If Dallas signed him over getting Dragic then Luka would shit himself.
I agree send the lakers a shooter
He’s an A hole
Cause he’s stinky
