Actually really like that idea. If Curry came in healthy, he was going to be begging for 15-20mill. Shooting is incredibly important and the Currys can definitely do that. We've paid him to do nothing but rehab so there's gotta be some loyalty there, plus I can't see other teams offering much more. Make it a 1+TO or a 1+TO+PO so we can get some semblance of bird rights and flexibility if he's never good again.

The three biggest problems this team has
1) rebounding
2) defense
3) shooting

Drafting Ayton/Bamba could address the rebounding and defense. Having Curry either next to Smith or sparking the offense with reserves would at least partially help the shooting.

He's a no-brainer signing from what he showed us last year. At the very least he will provide shooting, as you said. I think he has more potential than that for us, but would love to know if this injury has any long term affect. Sounds like they've pushed it, but the fracture is just slow healing and they shut it down or realllly dialed it back. I'm sure once it heals, he should be fine. Then again...I'm no doctor.

I don't watch much adult entertainment, but I may have seen that movie in the adult section of Blockbuster.

Someone will offer something that the Mavs can't turn down, right? JJ would be an excellent add to a contender.

Underdog · 01-10-2018, 06:49 PM

@bobbykaralla: Mavs have officially been awarded Jalen Jones off waivers and have waived Kyle Collinsworth. Rick Carlisle suggested to reporters that Collinsworth will be back on a 10-day.

@ESefko: "There's a very good chance he could be back with us on a 10-day sooner than later." Rick Carlisle on Kyle Collinsworth. On Jalen Jones: "He's an athletic wing player with lots of upside. From what I understand this is a futures move, to develop him."

@BallinWithBryan: The Mavs have made the acquisition of Jalen Jones official. Jones will wear No. 21 for the Mavs.

Bryan_Wilson · 01-10-2018, 07:03 PM

Another wing who can't shoot. Well here's to hoping I suppose. As an aggie fan I don't trust aggie bball players. Especially considering the only one who left any lasting memory with me was Acie Law.... whose best career game was prolly aganst the Mavs, cuz hey, that's what we do.

SMC0007 · 01-10-2018, 07:09 PM

Prediction. If he ever plays.. He comes in hits a 3 and plays well. Goes to the bench and then we later release him for the next futures move

Contract-related injuries?

Underdog · 01-16-2018, 09:03 PM

@ESefko: It will be February before Seth Curry, Dorian Finley-Smith and Nerlens Noel are back on practice floor. Noel on track 2 return 1st-early Feb

Underdog · 01-22-2018, 11:18 PM

1 game too late if you ask me

Tank commander Seth Curry out for the season per Woj. Surgery on his left tibia to be done soon. Yikes, leg surgeries are always a big concern. Guess you could sign him for the min though this summer.

That could be good news for us, but sucks for him.

1year + Team Option

Let him walk and wish him well if he's a trainwreck

Get bird rights and a second year for cheap if he gets back to being amazing

saclare · 02-06-2018, 02:19 PM

Doesn't sound terrible. Sounds like he was trying to avoid surgery by coming up with a plan to reduce the load on the stress fracture, but it just didn't take. Surgery was described as last resort and saw elsewhere he is expected to be 100% recovered and ready to go by July, and certainly for next season.

EricaLubarsky · 02-08-2018, 05:30 PM

Collinsworth signed for the rest of the season per MavsPR

Underdog · 02-23-2018, 02:56 PM

@espn_macmahon: The Mavs plan to sign swingman Scotty Hopson to a 10-day contract in the coming days, according to league sources. Hopson, 28, a former Tennessee star, has been playing in Europe.

Me.B · 02-25-2018, 08:01 PM

Holy Crap!

Figured this was the best place to post this. If not mods, feel free to move it. Just let me know where you move it to.

Dan Fegan has been a very good friend of the Mavs the last few years.

NBA agent Dan Fegan killed when his SUV was hit by bus on Highway 82 near Aspen
https://www.aspentimes.com/news/rfta...en-highway-82/

This doesn't necessarily pertain to the Mavericks, but he did represent a bunch of ex-Mavs, including Jason Terry, Shawn Marion, Chandler Parsons, Eddie Najera, Erick Dampier, and Antoine Walker, just to name a few... He was also pals with Mark Cuban, even though he whiffed on the Dwight Howard and DeAndre Jordan deals.

DevinHarriswillstart · 02-25-2018, 08:27 PM

Holy crap! That's terrible. Seriously, we're all on the bring of death on highways, but I figure winter conditions around there doesn't help.

tap2390 · 02-25-2018, 11:49 PM

Wow. It truly has been a bad/bizarre few weeks in the world of basketball.

Luke · 03-02-2018, 09:48 AM

I've been away for a few days..Cuban do anything to embarrass the Mavs this week?

MavzMan · 03-02-2018, 01:19 PM

Not yet, but we still have the weekend. And not sure if timezone difference counts too.

Underdog · 03-11-2018, 10:16 AM

@BallinWithBryan: The Mavericks did not extend a second 10-day contract to Scotty Hopson.

Dallas did announced today that they have signed forward Jameel Warney to a 10-day contract.

@BallinWithBryan: Jameel Warney (@Fullcoursemeelz) has averaged 19.8 points, 9.5 rebounds, 1.1 steals, and 1.2 blocks for the Texas Legends this season. In addition, he’s been a big part of USA Basketball. He was named the 2017 USA Basketball Male Athlete of the Year.

Hmm. Wonder if this reflects how the team feels about Motley (not good).
