Coulda had Leonard Miller, but Nico really couldn't have done better otherwise.

I love Richaun Holmes game. It?s crazy this team has been picking up players I like starting with Christian Wood and that didn?t work out. Holmes is another guy I always liked. This Mavs team got extremely better in a day.

What did we send back?
Took a bathroom break from Spider-Man and wasn?t expecting Holmes!

I am 36 years old and this is literally the best draft I have ever witnessed. Holy hell. We went from a lot of weaknesses to being able to make some major moves in the span of a week. Davis Bertans got us Lively, Holmes, OMax.... Un effing believable day for the Mavericks. I am curious what we gave up for Holmes and the pick though. Is it just TPE?

Either it will be rolled into the other trade or we are just using the TPE

I agree man! I don't post here often, I normally just read unless it's playoff time but my GOD! If there ever was a plan powder... This was it.
Tank, secure our pick. Trade back, still get the guy you want and will help the Mavericks. Flip the TPE into a SOLID center and get another first round pick lol. I can't believe what I just witnessed.

If they find a way to keep the TPE, I will be at a loss for words.

Getting 12/24 for Bertans and the 10th pick is as good as you could have imagined. I'm not as big on Prosper, but I know some like him.
Man, what happened to Leonard Miller? Must have really sucked in workouts.

Haha maybe Cuban's upcoming Kyrie bill changed his mind about the draft.

I probabaly would of taken Miller or TJD over Prosper but Prosper is legity prospect whose scouting report sounds like DFS. I'd try to get H Barnes before G. Williams.

OMax is way better for us. Better defense. Moves without the ball. Rebounds as well.
The only things Millet do better are things we don?t need like handling the ball.
Prosper is an upgrade on DFS. Miller is an Odom starter kit.

Rebounding was the difference between lottery and 5th
We did that AND addressed man defense, team defense, steals, and blocks

Blows my mind TJD is still available... someone is getting a day 1 rotation player late in the draft. Same goes for Sasser.
Edit: NVM Sasser gone at 25. At least I got that one right.

Nico is great.
It's the coach I'm worried about.
Because all the king's horses and all the king's men can't force Kidd to play them.
But for now, we finally have a youth movement of Hardy, Green, Prosper, and Lively.

And it's literally only because of his age.

GG Jackson finally went at 45. Another steal. This draft has to be the deepest I can remember.

if TJD goes undrafted, we better offer a guaranteed contract on the spot. If he gets picked, then call Tshiebwe who will be an insurance in case Holmes sucks.

Coach was ass last season. Idk who could have coached last seasons group deep into the playoffs. Provabkt no one....but Kidd kept tripping over his dick. It's easier to replace the coach once you have the talent. I would have went after JVG and voted Kidd off the island because I don't see him taking a passenger seat anywhere.

Agreed to parlay a few losses into 2 possible rookie starters....genius move.
Move a poor mans Kleber for a better fitting piece in Holmes. Kidd has to win out the gate, after this its a cherry on top of the offseason...assuming Kyrie is back. If Mavs are scuffling around 5 hundred at the break, need a new coach.

I can see Holmes being a great 2nd unit big. Versatile player that somehow lost his way.
