Pascal Siakam Is Available; Could He Be The Mavs’ Missing Piece? | K&C Masterpiece

Kyle Lowry H at least you know what thank you Cory I don’t either thank you for giving an answer that could conceivably be the correct answer it’s not but I appreciate you giving an answer that could have been the right answer he might be our third best rebounder on this team Pascal

Seak oh I’m in is yeah let’s get him hold on we’ll take him yeah I’ll trade Cuban for him he’s not even part of the organization barely he’s I think Cuban would make that deal if he’s like hold on you’ll take me all right deal I’ll give no CH

You don’t think Mark cubin would trade there’s casinos are there casinos in Canada what he wants is he’s available yeah he would be an amazing fit for this Dallas Mavericks team I agree because the Mavericks are one of the smallest teams in the NBA when you look at their

Closing lineups that they have to go with with yes Derek Lively is a long guy he’s our long one Long Tall guy that we have on the team literally everybody else on the court Luca is your second biggest player on the court at the end of games Kyrie now that he’s healthy is

Back uh and then you look at the two other guys that you’re throwing out there sometimes it’s Derrick Jones Jr it has been Dante exom deservedly so when he’s been healthy and now you’re looking at Grant Williams Tim Hardaway Jun J right I mean you’re a very small team at

The end of the game trying to put out your best five guys and SE yakum at 68 would be your second biggest guy on this team that would play you know good minutes and the thing that I like that can work in cooperation with Lively is I’ll admit siakam’s not a rim protector

Fair enough but he can switch off one to four and he’s a good help Defender and so SC I know and you had me at good Defender probably right but if you can go go through that many different positions and you’re a good help Defender I’m in on that but then Cory

Will you repeat what you just said and he can score and he can score he cannot shoot the three he’ll try on you but he can’t shoot the three but he can score a lot of points what you talking about dude against Detroit he was two for two for

Three Fair that’s 100% that’s a good point what what is he shooting from three there was also a game against Atlanta where he was five for six okay I’m pretty sure he’s like 30% the year 36.8 three point shooting it’s only 2.8% lower than Jim Hardway Jr that was in the month of

December I’m pretty sure it’s lower than that yeah let me go look at the whole year all right so so we all agree 100% Pascal cakam would help out this team tremendously the Dallas Mavericks I’ve wanted him for like two or three years now and he still time we strike he

Should have five years left of still being a premium player he’s 29 years old I would give him till 34 until they would probably be a a drop off where you’d go like oh crap and he’s not as good anymore 28.5% okay I thought it was

Pretty bad and I know people will bring this up one of the reasons he’s available is he will be a free agent after this year so the hope is you bring him in and you’re able to keep him but what will it take to bring him in and

Then I don’t know if you think it would be contingent on reigning and all of that stuff you brought it up yesterday we weren’t able to get to it yesterday because our show was just too loaded with great stuff so we get to it best show of the year unfortunately I did see

An NBA uh reporter and I’m sorry I’m drawing a blank it was a a woman who I follow on Twitter who follows the NBA and said this is what Toronto wants they want two rotational players young rotational players that can play right now in two first round picks Josh green

And Jaden Hardy oh that doesn’t make sense um that doesn’t make sense financially like doing it um but I’m with you that’s about the best we can do with young players that could maybe play uh on a redeveloping Toronto team they don’t want to go into tank mode because they

Do have still a decent team up there they got Scotty Barnes and now Emanuel quickly RJ Barrett’s had a bad year this year but he’s a solid he’s probably getting overpaid at this point in his career but he’s a good player he’s just not he’s not at all considered a

Potential Allstar or anything like that so they want to put put together two guys in their kind of mid to early 20s that they think can really help them become a good team a year or two from now and the MAV struggle with that on their roster besides Derek Lively who

You know and then you only have one first round pick to trade I will I I wonder if they would sub in a pick swap for that I want to get to more of that in just a second they did say two first round picks okay I wonder about it

Doesn’t mean that they get that though right that’s what they want they want two first round picks and two good young players I know Toronto in the past has been interested in Josh Green I’m not saying oh they’re like oh Josh Green we definitely got to do it oh because he’s

Australian I don’t know if I was about to say Canadian he’s not maybe they’re interested in Dwight pal please Toronto be interested in Dwight pal if there’s anything that I want is I want somebody else to be interested more in Dwight pal than Mavericks looking this this is what

Hoops hype projected as a Mavs offer so want to see if you think this is doable and if this would move the needle for Toronto Tim Hardaway Jr ran Holmes cuz remember you got to match some of the money uhx Jaden Hardy a first round pick and a pick first round pick

Swap uh I get it I want the player I would do that in a heartbeat wouldn’t even wouldn’t even I would say yes done sign the paper now before they change their mind yeah ran Holmes does absolutely nothing for you and he’s not an expiring contract he has money on the

Books next year Tim Hardway Jr non-expiring contract has about 16 1 12 to 17.2 million on the books next year Jaden Hardy has no place in this organization for the next two to three years as in like a really valued solid role he is omx valuable to them maybe it

Just matters what they valued him in the draft we don’t know where he was on their draft board that is a very good point cuz the Mavericks took him was it 21 overall if I have the pick right but is in the early 20s let’s just say so it

Just matters what they thought of him in the draft and then it would be your 2026 or 2027 pick SL pick swap with that year too most likely okay you said do it in a heartbeat I also add I know this makes it more complicated because you can’t

Trade him for like three more weeks and then salary cap it’s a nightmare they have professionals to figure that out as well I say you got to add they say you got to add Josh Breen to that mix as well done in a heartbeat wow still okay

I’m not a fan of Josh Green I I’ve noticed that I have yeah and I’ve lost the love for Josh Green I just I’m kind of curious as his place with this group okay so I’m not saying it’s the best group but when we talk about young

Players to offer Jaden Hardy Josh Green omx that’s better than I would have thought two years ago that you had available that you were really willing to trade so those three as the Lynch pin of young players and drafts because here’s my thinking on this if this were

To happen and I’m unloading yeah sure I’m unloading uh I would say more quantity than quality that’s the thing that I worry about is the rest of the league might offer better quality but we would offer more quantity here is I’m looking at the maps for the next let’s

Just say you sign Pascal SE yakum to a four-year contract extension at the end of the year you you don’t Max them out but you get you give them a big salary at like or for one six year I don’t know yeah a big contract if I have a healthy

Kyrie Luca Pascal seum Derek Lively I might be able to win it all in the next three years I might be able to I can’t I can’t even win a playoff series with the team I have now uh they they will make the playoffs I do think the

Mavs are going to make the playoffs play in game and I do think at this point they would maybe win one of those playin games to make the real playoffs then get hammered in the real playoffs because they can’t play defense and they can’t rebound on a consistent basis but if if

I get SE yakum there and I have SE yakum Lively my two Superstars and then I fill in the last spot with Grant Williams Maxi CA uh you know if if I need a big time shooter out there I still have Seth Curry you know I just look at how can I

Fill in the the rest of this team and the rest of this roster I go like I will take a chance with that situation rather than what I have now now I know that you’re kind of out of assets the rest of the way you have made the decision for

The next four years you are locked into this team there’s nothing else you can do you better hope that Lively continues on the track that you think he is going to be well I guess in my opinion he’s been so much better even his offense he

I can’t believe how good he is I’m not saying he’s a great offensive player I just can’t believe how coordinated he is around the basket like we’re used to sagana jop Eric dampier Shan Bradley Tyson Chandler was not this coordinated and athletic around the basket to make

These kind of shots I’m not saying Tyson I love here early in his career with Chris Paul was Lob City but then later on he became a a elbow guy he can shoot from the elbow the way that he’s able to kind of have some post moves he does

Have some post moves at 19 years old and look I’ve also been used to watching Dwight pal for a decade right so so somebody asked this can we keep Hardy and move green the reason why I would say probably not it was because it would depend on Toronto’s valuations of those

Players but also Hardy is significantly cheaper just because the green extension got done and then you wouldn’t pull the trigger on that for 3 weeks I’m not saying the trade would get done in the next 3 weeks anyway and he just cost more for I don’t know how they evaluate

Him as a player green is in his fourth year averaging six points two rebounds two assists and can’t stay healthy for an NBA schedule like that’s that’s what he is in his fourth year in the NBA on a team that needs him to be more than that

Yeah he had that good two we stretch last year he did in two weeks he got got paid $55 million that’s the amazing thing about Josh green and good for him man he’s set for life because he had two weeks a good basketball in the NBA where

We thought he was taking a step to definitely another level and has regressed back to the guy that you’re not sure can play consistent minutes in the NBA I would love to move Josh Green for a valued asset um his contract’s weird when it comes to trading because

Of the new extension but look if you can get Pascal aam cuz I don’t think you’re going to be able to make a trade for I don’t know who you would be in love with Kevin Durant if he falls out of love with Phoenix you know whatever it is I

Don’t know if you’re going to be able to do this this might be doable and then you hope that your Casino money lady says all right four years 160 million we’re going into luxury tax and I don’t care and when Derek Lively becomes a free agent 5 years and 220 million I

Don’t care like we are not allowing a jayen Bruns and ever happened on our watch again and that’s where I’d be happy with the casino money I just don’t know the thing about Pascal SE yakum Kevin reading about it I’m sure you have to there’s a good six teams that really

Want him right now and that is and and that’s and the Mavericks are one of them which is always the situation it feels like whenever a player that seems attainable for the Mavericks is interested everybody else that has more assets is he doesn’t have a Super Choice

Her he is kind of from here he’s not really from here but he did go to high school here if that’s the case then about all the teams chasing him I just if if it’s not the Mavs I want to see a deal that I’m like that makes sense I

Feel like there have been a couple times and I’m like what we could have done that yes I just want a deal that I’m like well you never and we couldn’t have won the OG anobi trade the Mavericks wanted him they they really liked him they just didn’t have the assets that

The New York Knicks have in fact the New York Knicks still have more assets you know they have two first round picks this year one of them be in the Mavericks for the for the porzingis trade if you’re wondering hey could the MAV get another Derrik Lively this year

In the draft no they can’t because Kristoff porzingis trade still isn’t paid off how long how long we have to pay that off uh one more year if you could be really terrible again if we if Dwight pal wanted to body slam all of our ankles we could keep our Pick

  1. Thats a bad trade. Mavs would be giving up too much. I'd keep O-Max and ship Josh Green. We need a 6th man off the bench so we cant ship both Hardy and THJ. One of them will need to stay. Also, we will need to somehow retain assets so we can get a backup center. I really want Andre Drummond on this team behind Lively.
