Agree. I think Brunson wanted a chance to run the show, and that was never going to happen here. People also forget his various deficiencies, mainly size. Had the Mavs kept him for maybe 4/80, I think that would have been fine. More than that, likely overpaying. I also think Dinwiddie will take up much of the production that Brunson had (and is taller and a better defender), AND we got Christian Wood too. It wasn't nearly as bad an offseason as all the pundits keep saying.
