  1. Mavs need to draft Derrick Lively. Sign Woods. We can't keep giving up assets for absolutely nothing.

  2. I’d trade 2027 and this years pick for capela and collins and number 15. Draft a wing , resign kyrie, sogn Dillon brooks, get someone like josh Richardson , get torey Craig and Okogie(for defense and cheap) and keep javale for the bench. Get someone back for wood in a sign and trade. We’re good for bench scoring cuz josh green and Hardy would easily have 25+ combined every night. And be on the lookout for aj lawson that’s another piece

  3. Mavs need depth, both youth and veteran. Why not Bertans, Javale, and 10 to Charlotte for Terry Rozier (3rd guard/veteran), Mark Williams (young starting Center), and picks 27 & 39? Who says no?

  4. Mavs need an entirely new roster outside of Luka, Kyrie ( if he stays ) and Hardy. None of these moves will even move the needle in the slightest. Mavs need to get Ayton and use THJ, Maxi, Green, Bullock, Bertans, McGee any of those guys to make that Ayton trade happen. Can’t fix the issues on this roster by trading away one piece with the 10th pick. Livley is not a mobile defender he’s extremely slow and will not fix the Mavs issue and he’s extremely under weight he’s like 210-220 at the most. He’s going to get abused in the NBA. If you are in the mindset of a rookie being the fix they need, you mine as well just let Kyrie walk and trade Luka. He’s not waiting 2+ years for a rookie to start at center or the wing while not having competent starters to help him win now. If anything the pick should be used and viewed as a bench guy instead of trying to make him be a starter right away. If THJ is gone in that Ayton deal and Hendrix is gone by 10 I’m taking Gradey Dick he will make immediate impact as a shooter off the bench for the Mavs and would have no issue playing along side a Luka or Kyrie or Ayton. If Mavs dump all those contracts sign Kyrie to $40m a year and trade for Ayton and keep Hardy they will have the 10th pick, $13m in cap space, the MLE’s, vet mins and min contracts to get 2 starting wings and fill a bench out. Wings just need to shoot corner 3’s and play defense at a high level and 2 guys like Thybulle and Jalen McDaneils are FA’s and won’t be expensive. Now you have 2 elite perimeter defenders along with a very capable defensive center who can score and rebound and quick enough to guard perimeter guys in Ayton.

  5. I like the sign and trade Wood since we are not smart enough to keep him
