And, yeah, Sacramento sits vets to tank -- that's why George Hill is trying to force his way out and no FAs want to play for the Kings unless they're the only team left with cap space... If that's the franchise you want to model yourself after, then expect similar results.

FAs don't care about whether or not the Mavs tanked to get a top pick. JJ Redick signed with Philly this year, and they wrote the book on tanking. That's a non-issue. What will impact signing free agents is the difference between the Mavs drafting DeAndre Ayton and Wendell Carter Jr. That'll have an impact on whether DSJ re-signs with the Mavs when the time comes too.
Also, Barea had 11 assists last night. He had a big part in the Mavs comeback. Did you see the #s they showed on the telecast last night about how Powell plays with & without Barea on the floor? Barea should of sat last night.
