Official Mavs 2020 Draft/Free Agency Thread

[EricaLubarsky]

This debate is ridiculous, but so is this offseason

We basically have no trade assets.

What we have
18th/31st pick - but we can't trade the 18th until after we've drafted
3million in cash

That's it.

We can't trade:
any first rounders until 2025
our second rounder this year (it's gone to the Warriors)
use cap to absorb bad contracts (we're functionally over the cap)

We really don't have good contracts to trade. We're very top heavy on contracts so we have the big contracts of KP/THJ, untradable guys like Doncic, and then not a lot of ballast/beneficial contracts to match/sweeten any deals. Every trade I look at, I just fo go to contracts and we just don't have the contracts to match and we're over the cap. If we trade with a team

I honestly don't think we can even make a trade if we wanted to. Maybe something involving our 18th/31st, but any trade involving the 31st pick will have to wait until November, because then it becomes rights to a player and not a first rounder.
