Mavs Payroll… thoughts?

    Bullock is basically getting a cool 10 Million to brick shots and score less than 5 per game. The man has found how to cheat life.

  2. P1mongoose

    Overly bloated with no good relief until 2024-25

  3. AlecarMagna

    Pretty wild that there is almost no one on the roster to develop with Luka to be here in his prime.

  4. Independent_Dust9092

    Gotta say 37 mil for Luka is the best pay ever for what we get when Westbrook gets 47 mil,also looking at this makes me sad.

  5. Jimmy_E_16

    Other than Luka + 3 mediocre young players, our roster is averaging 30 years old lol

  6. Necessary_Rate_4591

    It’s dog shit which isn’t a new revelation.

  7. pharmaceuticaldisco

    Gonna be hard if not impossible to unload those contracts. Then you only have a year to sign a big name and hope Doncic doesn’t leave lol.

  8. Simple_Wait_7286

    – Luka: Underpaid tbh
    – Spencer: Adequate
    – THJ: Overpaid
    – Bertans: Way overpaid
    – Wood: Underpaid (but about to get a new contract)
    – DFS: Adequate
    – Powell: Overpaid
    – Bullock: Adequate last season. Overpaid now but when you look at some of the names with similar contracts (THT, Tucker, Bamba), it’s not that bad
    – Kleber: Low-key underpaid considering what he means for this team
    – McGee: Overpaid

    The rest are too young or haven’t played much.

  9. That’s a lot of money for not a good roster. 60 freaking million dollars a year for THJ, Bertans, Powell and Bullock. That’s insane

  10. Ok-Paint-4271

    That Bertans number is hard to stomach.

  11. top_of_the_table

    We just have to pull through with that roster until 2024 or 2025, dont do anythin stupid and we will be in a great position to sign someone good in Free Agency 2025 and start chasing championships. Doesnt have to be a superstar, just a solid second option. With Luka on board, that has to be possible.

  12. Yaddlethejedimaster

    Mavs are screwed. No one will accept davis on a sign and trade and the mavs don’t have the picks. I’m not a fan of Jalen Brunson but the mavs should have re signed him and Christian wood should get an extension

  13. Active_Page_3886

    Bertans, Hardaway, Finney-Smith, Bullock and Dinwiddie should all be getting shopped. There are for sure replacements for all of those players that are either:

    A) cheaper

    B) younger

    C) better

    D) healthier

    E) on a shorter contract

    or

    F) all of the above

  14. tennisss819

    Currently picturing Bertans with a ski mask and a gun.

  15. frankinho23

    My thoughts are that’s a lot of overpaid players. LD, Wood, Maxi and Green are fairly compensated, everyone else are stealing money from MC

  16. panguymj

    good contracts: luka, wood, green, hardy

    fine contracts: dinwiddie, dorian, powell, kleber, frank, theo, wright, lawson

    bad contracts: hardaway, bertans, bullock, mcgee

  17. orangEcrushE

    I kinda forgot Terry was still getting paid. That seems like forever ago.

  18. MrBrookman

    We need to lose THJ or Bertans to make room for another costar. An ideal situation would be clear one of them and one of our 9-12M guys for a 25-31M. I know the salary math is more complicated than that but something along those lines makes sense. If Bullock shows up for the EOY and playoffs again, and Bertans looks solid as well, it would be a dream to package then in the offseason for a roughly $25M impact player. The stars would have to align, though.

    Also, McGee is overpaid but it’s not that big of a deal at the end of the day at 5M.

  19. justanother-eboy

    Maybe the Mavs need to replace their front office? They are in decent amount of luxury tax so not like Cuban is being cheap, but like others have said some of these shooters / role players are overpaid

  20. THJ, Bertans, Powell, Bullock, McGee all overpaid

  21. These dudes get a raise bigger than the amount of money I’ll ever make in my life

  22. Thoughts on unloading Bertans hardaway and McGee for Westbrook and then cutting Westbrook. Lakers might go for it their shooting is so bad our mediocre shooting guys would be a godsend to them

  23. I bought NBA2K23 last week. All I’ve learned is that we are screwed. We need to dump salary for 2 years and rebuild but we can’t or Luka will bail.

  24. Strummed

    Only thing that I can say about this is thank fucking Jesus Christ that Dinwiddie has been good. 36 million for him and Bertans to stink shit up while KP has actually been solid in Washington would feel dreadful.

  25. GoTimeShowtime

    Should’ve maxed Brunson and paid with picks to offload all this flotsam

  26. qotsabama

    2024 is the earliest year we may make major free agent splashes.

  27. bloodydingbat

    THJ and Bertans make as much as Smart and Brown.

    That is all.

  28. GoTimeShowtime

    Tired: spending $30M a year on your second best player to retain him

    Wired: spending $40M a year for THJ and Bertans

  29. unskilledplay

    You know that guy who got internet famous because he kept trading up a red paperclip until he got a house? Mark Cuban hires people who he traded with.

  30. onepokemanz

    Everyone besides Luka is overpaid asf

    Isn’t Brunson getting 25m and could be an all star this year ?
    Spencer is an avg player that’s kinda clutch
    And hardaway should be a 6th man on a title team

  31. AwlGassKnowBreaks

    Not my money. I’d be happier if Cuban was paying 300MM a year in luxury tax.

  32. MastaMayne

    There’s a lot I have issue with, but signing JaVale McGee for any amount of money was such a transparently horrible move

  33. Hugh_Jankles

    My thoughts are we had a post the other day about trading Bertans and a 1st for Bojan and people were actually saying no lmao.
