After watching Josh Green play last night, I’m reminded once again that facilitating a trade with the Pistons, or getting a team to take salary off our books would have required giving up Green.
Ultimately, a lot will simply depend on how Green pans out. If he works on his ballhandling and shooting, his ceiling is a Jaylen Brown-type. Obviously it’s better to have Brown than Wood.
For now, I don’t think I’m comfortable stating that the Mavs front office has missed out on any opportunities. But to prove me right, Carlisle will need to give some more leeway to our rookies.
