2018 Free Agency / Armchair GM Thread

[Me.B]

I’m trying to get used to the idea of the Mavs going in the direction of “today’s NBA” of rolling out a PG, 3 interchangeable forwards, and a rim protector.

I saw someone else post this idea on a different board and what to see what y’all think. If it’s even possible.

Mavs trade Wes, JJ, and Powell to Washington for Otto Porter and Gortat. Then use the remaining cap space to sign Deandre Jordan.

That would give the Mavs a lineup of

DJ/Gortat
Porter/Dirk/Motley
Barnes/DFS/McBuckets
Luka/Curry
Dennis/Brunson

Now, DJ would have to opt out and likely be convinced to take a little less than the $25 mil he’s expected to make this year. Maybe a longer contract could convince him to do so?

I’m just brainstorming so try not to kill me too much on this idea.
