    Really am loving the new moves they’re making, the Kemba hire especially made me happy.

    As a Mavs fan I have nothing bad to say about Green. Yes, he will never be an Allstar, probably not even a 3rd option. BUT ge has everything needed to be a really good KCP/Danny Green/Terrence Mann kinda SG/SF. He gives 100% energy every game. Fights for every ball on defense and can shoot. He was just a bit to passive on offense. But if given more of a green light, he can be a 10-12 PPG, 38% 3P shooting starting level 3&D SG/SF on a good PO team. No question about it.

    All I’m sayin is if we can position ourselves to get Cooper Flagg or Ace Bailey then we should. A play in game this year is nowhere near as important as a high lottery pick for 2025.

      I completely agree. I wanna see them build a culture and start to learn how to win. But I don’t want to see them win to many games this year lol. I need a Top 3 pick. Cooper or Ace gotta be a Hornet.

      I get what y'all saying but the competitor in me says screw tanking. No disrespect, but tanking sounds selfish to me if I was the no.1 guy on the team. If you wanna tank, then I don't want to be part of that.

    The acquisition of Josh Green most likely closes the door for Curry. Not enough roster spots for nostalgia. Hoping they will buy out Reggio Jackson and not sacrifice a roster spot for one of the younger players. Green also can play point and with the addition of KJ Simpson should more than cover the PG position. Simpson will most likely be 2 way which made Bailey expendable. Wouldn't mind a swap of Micic for Zeke Nnaji who can play both 4 & 5. Trade rumor of Bridges to Clippers for Powell and Mann would be a bummer. Better alternatives such as Hachimura and John Collins. Wouldn't mind a sign and trade with NY Nick Richards for Precious Achewa. Salaun is supposed to be available for Vegas.

    Honesty is melo/williams and the rest of the squad stay healthy and we re sign bridges . we have a chance to make play in or better….but that’s highly unlikely lol. Im happy w every move made except amari Bailey didn’t get a fair chance I’d rather have him than mcgowens. Also we need a 3rd string center or this team isn’t serious

      Hornests should have done away with Brice. Amari Bailey never really had opportunity prove himself.
      To me, Brice is a below average player.

      Win the lottery as in....??? The key players are there now, why tank? This is like saying the young guys at OKC should tank to get a backup center for Chet. The draft just passed, the opportunity was there for the organization and they made their choice, no reason to tank anymore.
