You know what? I certainly don't "get" why I waste my time around here anymore. Not worth it. Posting is so terrible that it makes my eyes bleed.

I'm done, peace.

Seriously? Whatever man. It was a perfectly fair question. I think if there was a good answer to it, you would have provided it instead of flouncing.

He seems like a nice enough dude, but he gets mad anytime you ask him to clarify his position.

1. Drummond
2. Capela
3. Gobert
4. Ayton
5. Sabonis
6. Jokic
7. Randle
8. Embiid
9. Giannis
10. Vucevic
11. Wood
12. Valanciunas
13. Kanter
14. Adams
15. Doncic
16. Adebayo
17. Jarrett Allen
18. Mason Plumlee
19. Anthony Davis
20. Thompson
21. Simmons

24. Siakam
25. Richuan Holmes
26. Carter Jr.
27. James
28. Portis
29. Josh Hart?
30. Dwight Howard

Many on the list are not likely to be traded. Some were FAs this past season. Some have been passionately rejected by Mavs fans because they don't fit with KP or Mavs system in general. If you don't go after someone on this list are you going to fix the horrendous rebounding disadvantage Mavs face in almost every game?

I think that it's sad that the top 3 guys would guys on that list do to their lack of 3 point shooting would all be classified as bad fits in Dallas because they hurt the spacing for KP.

It's funny how Atlanta has figured out how to use Collins and Capela together, Robinson and Randall seem like an odd fit in New York but it's working, then you Adams and Zion meshing well.

Sometimes as a coach you have to find away to fit your system around the talent. But the Mavs do at times past up more talented players because they aren't a good fit for the system.

I will even add that it's ok if you don't won't KP playing PF any longer but they never even bothered to look into a guy like Dwight Howard who's productive coming off the bench for you.

Whiteside is another guy who was dirt cheap that you knew could rebound and block shots but I'm guessing the Mavs have their own reasons for not pursuing him.

The two times they did get to Finals ironically both teams had traditional bigs who only jobs were to rebound and provide rim protection.
