      Thj/maxi/1st round pick in a sign and trade for Miles Bridges. Mavericks get a young third scorer, Hornets get a THJ expiring contract, a versatile roll player, and a first round pick instead of Bridges just walking for nothing.

    I think people are sleeping on how easy the mavs can create cap space and go under the 1st apron.
    They can easily create over 40m
    They can easily trade the pick package with thj for Alex Caruso
    still resign Djj for 15m while also having 25m-30m in cap space
    While having NTMLE 12.5M + BA 5M
    They mavs just have to trade
    1.thj
    2.green

      Caruso is the dream! Put him on the Mavs and he gives you 15ppg MINIMUM and he's upgrades their defense. He would either be a great undersized SF or a great 6th man to rest Luka and Kyrie so the offense and defense never drop when you rest the stars.

      @@_AVC_ I'm both a Chicago fan AND a Caruso fan and I'm sick of watching them constantly trying to push him out of the lineup. The Bulls have White and DeRozan (unless he goes too) and it makes Caruso a part time player. He is so much better than what the Mavs have it would be awesome to get him. Without any other moves it makes them almost a lock to get back to the Finals.
      Any opinions on the other guy's suggestion about Isaac? I'm a fan of his too and Orlando doesn't seem to need him right now. I saw him put up 22 or 24 in one game, then they basically didn't play him for the next 3. He deserves better. I'd take him over Washington IF I was sure he was healthy.

    Here’s some other trades I could see the mavs thinking about.
    WINGS/Stretch 4-5
    Dorian finney smith (bring him home)
    Cam Johnson
    Bobby Portis
    Hunter/ Bey
    Patrick Williams
    Jerami grant
    Kelly Olynyk
    I’m sure there’s more
    I think the main priority should be to replace Maxi with another stretch 4/5 option. One which is younger and possibly cheaper. Maxi is great at shooting but he’s getting up there in age and has been very injury prone the past few seasons making him unreliable. Ideally I would like Bobby Portis or Kelly Olynyk to provide some more toughness and some spacing. The maxi role allows the mavs to go to a different look like against the 5 out spacing of some other teams like OKC. Also I don’t have the defensive numbers but I’m positive the lineups where the mavs played maxi at the 4 next to either Lively or Gafford, the results were usually really good. That’s a lot of size and switch ability while still maintaining some spacing.
    Secondly the main thing I disagree with in your video was josh green. He does a lot of things good but not great. He is a great guy in transition and can get hot from three. But too often his role is undefined and he looks scared to make a mistake or resorts to being too passive. If the mavs bring back exum, djj, and sign another 3/d wing, I could see him losing a lot of minuets which means he should be gone considering his contract. This is the main reason I’m willing to throw him in a trade with a guy like Tim or maxi and Powell.
    I’m curious what your thoughts on adding a player like brogdon would be? I see him adding another 15-18ppg and being the third ball handler/six man. During the previous WCF run Kidd liked to run three guard lineups with Luka,Brunson,Dinwiddie. I would offer Tim and omax plus maybe a first, or all our seconds? Brogdons last health issues does worry me however.
    Here’s some other random mavs thoughts
    1. Lively will probably start shooting some threes next season and I’m excited to see how that turns out
    2. Omax could develop into the stretch 4 I was saying the mavs need previously which could save them ALOT of money
    3. Hardy could cheaply replace Tim’s scoring role easily. Hardy also is a better playmaker and will continue to improve with time which is exciting.
    4. The team as a whole is still young aside from Kyrie and maxi. There’s a lot of room to grow with the current core.

    • @_AVC_
      @_AVC_  Před 8 dny +2

      Love this comment! A lot of cool ideas here!
      I do like the Brogdon move. I didn’t think about that one. That’s probably another way to move THJ and get something a little more team friendly in return. Then maybe Maxi goes in another deal and not for Caruso.
      Love the thoughts!

    • @kevinmcgee-ud4ot
      @kevinmcgee-ud4ot Před 8 dny +1

      Really nailed it on the head, agree with most of your thoughts. My shortened target list is:
      Pipedream not gonna happen: Bridges, Herb Jones, Trey Murphy
      Maybe could happen: Cam Johnson, Deandre Hunter, Marcus smart
      More likely but not as ideal as above: Caruso, Patrick Williams, Jonathan Isaac, Brogdon, Dodo, Bogdan
      Random FAs that could be attainable (cap permitting) that would help on bench: Royce, Gary Harris, deanthony melton, Lonnie Walker, batum, Beverly, buddy, kennard, Doug McDermott, Joe ingles, Jae crowder
      Guys that have horrible contracts that scare me: Jerami Grant, Wiggins
      Think we should use both first round picks, Green, THJ, Hardy, Omax as needed to get any of those trade targets.

      I don’t necessarily think it’s a “ball handler”. I think you want a connector. Someone to keep the offense moving once Luka or Kyrie are done with the ball. Essentially what Jrue Holiday is.
      I think you can get the extra scoring from Hunter, but I think the connector is already there in PJ.

    Been waiting for this, great video as usual!
    It’s summer now and I have nothing to do except think about my team all day so bare with me
    First the picks situation, I’ve seen a lot of people say the mavs now will have a 2031 first to trade after or during the draft. I didn’t see it in the video so I guess I’m just curious if you knew about it or perhaps it’s not included for a reason. The reason this is important is because I feel like other teams might feel like they can ask the mavs for an extra pick since they u derstand they really want to get better and can leverage that.
    Secondly looking at the players you added I completely agree with. I really like the veteran presence of pat bev, and the 3/d of Caruso and Hunter. I’ve never really been a fan of Hayes but thats more for personal reasons.
    I struggle to see the bulls just taking back maxi and a first for Caruso the most. Given their history up until now nothing indicates they will change until they actually do. I also struggle to see the hawks taking Tim if they keep a player like Bogdanovic since they are kind of similar roles. But I do understand the hawks trying to fix their cap.

    • @_AVC_

    I’m not sure of Wiggins value right now so don’t know if that’s realistic but I think he could be both that 3rd option capable of creating his own shot when needed, and the point of attack defender with DJJ backing him up off the bench.

    Also another trade target who I think could fill the Caruso/DJJ role would be Thybulle. He tried to sign with the mavs last offseason but the blazers matched the offer sheet. His australia ties is part of why he would like to play with green I think and he want to contend. If caruso is too expensive or they miss out I think thybulle is just as good of a fit there.

    One thing you HAVE TO take into account is Kyrie choking against the Celtics again. Dallas needs to be able to COMFORTABLY score 90-95 a game BEFORE you count Irving's contributions. Maybe with less pressure he'll perform better, but you can't count on it. They need 15-20ppg from the SF or PF position and put PJ at the other one (and move Jones or Green to 6th man).

    Coming from a Mavs fan, love these moves! You think the Kings would do a 1-1 swap with Davion Mitchell & Josh Green? Him, Caruso, DJJ, & Gafford would make up best the defensive bench in the NBA… I would also start DLive too. Great work!

    • @SDesWriter
      @SDesWriter Před 7 dny +1

      Why bring Caruso off the bench? Start him at SF (a little undersized but he can guard forwards without a problem) and he will give you 15ppg. That's a hell of a lot more than what we have right now. If you can get a REAL forward (like Avdija, Siakam, Isaac, or Anunoby) then that's even better. If they could figure out a way to get a real forward (SF or PF) who could give them 15ppg and 7-10 rebounds, THEN added Caruso......that's next year's NBA champion. If Kyrie goes out for 20-30 games (or when Luka has to take a game here or there), you are still winning against most teams in the NBA. And when you get to the Clippers, OKC or MN, you're not concerned at all. And they would slap down Boston in another Finals.....especially if Luka was healthy. I can't imagine the damage he would do with that lineup. Might be an all-time Finals performance.....
      I don't know how much other people follow him, but I'm a big fan of him and the Bulls and have watched dozens of his games. He has a GREAT shot from the top of the key or above the break, AND he can drive the lane and finish strong. Plus he's an even better defender than Washington or Jones. Whether he's at SF or you bring him off the bench, he makes the Mavs a solid 10ppg better than they were.....and he's not going to choke in the finals.

      @@_AVC_ He doesn't get enough shots with the Bulls. I've seen him hit three 3s in a row, then get pulled from the game and not get another shot for 15-20 minutes. He can go to the basket, he's a lob threat, and he has a VERY pure jumpshot from the top or above the break. I've seen him score 10 in their offensive scheme on a night where he couldn't make a single 3. I guarantee with Luka passing the ball he'd get a LOT of open looks and he'd be a 15ppg player.
      Out of everyone in the NBA I've probably seen him play more than anyone else because I like the Bulls but even when they suck I watch games to see what he's doing. He's been my favorite 2nd tier player for a long time. Before Grayson intentionally fouled him and broke his collar bone, the Bulls were on track to be a top 4 team in the East that year.....and he was scoring more.

      @@_AVC_ 47%FG / 41% 3pt shot (mostly from the top, where the Mavs are weakest). I know he hasn't averaged it yet, but he obviously has the potential to knock down open shots AND get to the rim. He also gets you 4reb/4assists/2 steals. He's literally better than Jones in every way, even if he stayed at 10ppg (which I firmly believe he wouldn't).
      He's exactly the kind of player Luka makes better because he will be in where he needs to be and he will stick the open jumper.....and he's really freaking smart out there. No dumb plays turning the ball over trying to create something in a crowd (1.3 steals and 1.2 turnovers for his career). Oh yeah, and he would be tied with Kyrie for best 3pt shooter on the Mavs, and their team 3pt% would rise significantly by getting rid of some dead weight and cutting playing time for guys who shoot worse. That cuts down on fast break points for the other team.

In reality he is actually one of the worst in the whole NBA 😅. Good news is he gives effort, he’s just not getting any sort of results.

    DeAndre Hunter seems a little underwhelming as the main acquisition for a team that goes over the 2nd apron. But as the archetype of a two-way wing he fits.
    I wonder how much more flexibility and opportunity is opened if bringing back DJJ is given up on, so that instead of salary dumping to free up an MLE you're using that salary in a trade.
    DJJ has been great but he did have that stretch in regular season where he was poor on offense and you fear that could come back, also with the right replacement (Avdija?) you wouldn't be shedding tears for too long.

    • @_AVC_
      @_AVC_  Před 7 dny

      Hmm interesting thoughts! Yeah if you don’t bring him back it doesn’t really help much in terms of the cap. Cuz you’ll still be over the cap and limited to the minimum contract for all free agents. It keeps out the 2nd apron but then you do the same moves and you just have the same thing minus DJJ. Could always use him as a trade piece in the season if you need to since his contract really isn’t that high.

    I like your vídeos a lot, I've watched most of them, I love some of the teams you have built, that Memphis team is my favorite one so far, and the vídeos are getting better and better, however there is one thing I believe you've been doing wrong, perhaps the rule changed and I don't know, but I believe it didn't change.
    After the trade deadline, teams can't trade a player that have only 1 year left on his contract. If a player have a team option on his deal, in order for him to be traded, that option has to be picked before the trade happen for it to be legal.
    So for example, Dallas can't acquire Troy Brown Jr, and waive him after the trade. This trade would work regardless, Detroit could just absorb Dwight Powell into their raw cap space. I don't think Detroit should or would FWIW, but that's a diferente discussion, and I think someone else with cap space would eat Powell's 4 million for a 2nd so that's kinda irrelevante here, it's a solid and very realistic idea and I believe it will actually happen this offseason.
    But in other videos, you've been trading players with team options and them having teams releasing them after the trade, and like I said, I could be wrong, but that's not how it work.
    Anyways cudos for what you are doing, you have a lot of knowledge of the players and understand the teams needs and I have been enjoying this series, that's why I wrote this.

    We want Jones back? Seriously? He shot 6.5ppg @ 43% / 25%. and 3/

      Yes, he was Good defensively and was a lob threat, with the money we can offer people he would be one of the only few decent players we could play everyone else would be getting paid too much. We could trade him or someone else like Dante Exum at the deadline and they would have somewhat decent value.

      @@darthwalrus1327 The idea of prying Caruso away from the Bulls is WAY better. He's a better defender, a MUCH better scorer, and also a lob threat (only a little less than Jones). If the entire offseason consisted of getting Caruso, it would still be a huge success. But if you dump Jones, Kleber, Hardaway and a couple others, instead of trying to play 11 deep you can shorten the roster to 8 or 9 and have a MUCH better team.
      Tired of athletic guys with ugly jump shots.

      @_AVC_ dont have to. Mavs wont make it back to Finals. West is tougher in the next years to come. Dont be suprised if it's a Lakers V Nuggest WCF. Unless Luka stops bitching, lose weight and shoot fking free throws. Then they might have some chance. Kyrie is on a decline also so yeah. They aint really gonna comeback to the Finals

      @_AVC_ thanks for the sympathy but seriously this was their only chance. lets be honest and accept Luka is a whiner which cost game 3. Kyrie is on a decline going on 33 yrs old. Rest of the team cant make any shots.
      JUST so you know one of your prospect Alex Caruso just got traded to Okc. Gg
