Cuban isn't going to fire Rigid Rick or Donnie even though he should be highly considering it. They're all too close and comfy imo. Rick's offense is not flexible enough to accommodate KP even if he is capable of more than what he's been. Defense is suspect but so is the roster.

Offer Tim what he makes now for another cpl years and if someone wants him more than that, so be it. No more one dimensional players until we solidify our 2nd star.

2 way players are desperately needed.

Sizeable guard who can create and fn dribble. Derozan?

JRich isn't opting out so forget about it.

DeRozan is a good player equal to PG IMO

But the problem is Rick might not be too high on him because he's a mid range shooter.

They value the 3 ball so much that a good player like DeRozan might get side stepped by the Mavs because of the fit in the current system.

Put him next to Luka and you get equal production with Leonard & George of the Clippers.

Derozen isn’t nearly as good of a 3 point shooter or defender as PG. Although have someone like Derozen who can create a shot for himself is badly needed on this team.

You need a Derozen for when Luka sits on the bench. I like bringing in young players and letting them grow with Luka but I can get behind Derozen and Lowry.....not sure how you'd get them though.

Just like Atlanta adding Bogdanovic, Lou Williams and Gallinari all in a 12 month period

Yeah they have a solid mixture of vets and young guys around Trae....but the Hawks had a plan in place. Mavs don’t seem to have one.

'They' do? Or 'the NBA' does? Mavs have had the highest percentage, by far, of mid range jump shots in the NBA, when Dirk was playing. The NBA has changed since then, but I wouldn't put that on Rick, or the Mavs. I actually think Rick wouldn't mind seeing more mid range jump-shots.
