At least my pistons are being aggressive finally!...we wont get a FA to flat out sign to play here so we gotta try trades or sad to say it....overpay......
 
At this point, you get rid of Gay, a max player who has never made an All-Star team. Get New York on the phone and make sure they still take Bargs. Cross your fingers for your hometown guy Andrew Wiggins and call it a day.
 
Kings are so stupid

Can't believe kings paid that much for AI, and y are the Cavs signing Earl when they just drafted 2 SF's?
 
3 year, 10 mil
2 year, 6-7 mil

Numbers going around for Clark. Would love that price.

Low risk, High reward. Do it Grant.

People are quick to forget Reke's flashes of potential at Memphis, and also he was a savage his rookie year.

Only thing lacking is a consistent outside jumper.

That's what worries me. I don't care how bad your franchise situation is, you can improve your jumper.

He's a hell of a ball handler/playmaker in general though. Combined with his athleticism he should be a top 5 guard in the league if he could around 35% on 3's

On Elton Brand;

Of all the newcomers from last year, he probably showed the most promise for being able to help a team in the future. His defense is still there, but the spark wasn't. He tried a lot of nights, but it was futile when the team just wasn't very good. I think he can be a great pickup for a contender. He has stuff left.
 
Oh ok I was speaking on Bennett and guy from Russia though. I thought Bennett was going to play SF in the league? Guess not

if I'm Cuban trading Dirk is no way in hell going to happen, Dirk says he is a Mav for Life after killing the Heat, and Cuban won't ever let Dirk leave, Dirk showed his loyalty in 2010 off season, I heard he could have signed with the Heat, but decided to stay, and look what happened....he won a title the same season, and beat the team he could have signed with in the off season.

Dirk, Kobe, Duncan will never look good in another uniform.

Regardless of where Dirk gets traded, that teams draft pick will not be good enough to equate his wealth to the Mavs.

Say he gets traded to Orlando for Oladipo and a few firsts. That team is decent enough maybe not for the playoffs, but to be out of the hunt for a top-5 pick for sure.

The difference between Pierce and Dirk was that there was never a Big 3 in Dallas. It's ALWAYS been Dirks team. When KG and Ray got there, it was equal ownership. Not just that, but Ainge has been noncommittal on the Celtics future for a while. Cuban has always had Dirks blessing, and the other way around too.

Whether its the right move or not, we will see.

And the point that everyone ignores is Dirks huge contract is up after this year. He's said numerous times if they land a big fish, that he'll take a huge paycut.

That paycut, plus Marion's 9 million off the books = another max contract guy next year too.

You absolutely have to overpay in Sacramento and New Orleans, but this shouldn't be the way you do it... Neither of them is to this point yet.
