Splitting this out to its own thread. Knicks better not screw up the plan of Dallas taking a center. If the Mavs get Doncic, I could see Capela in their sights. Chandler Parsons in New York... what could possibly go wrong?
Dwight Powell was pretty impressive when we played the Mavs last season. Honestly, I think they would be better off with him at 9 million per the Capela on a max.
It looks like a LOT of chess being played. So much misdirection it seems. Everyone appears to be using doncic and/or Bamba as a means to gauge the market. It started incense sacremento was leaning towards Bagley and Atlanta not interested in doncic. Followed shortly by Memphis, seeing a market value at 4, looking to trade down and shed Parsons contract for the ability to take doncic. Shortly after that, Atlanta is fielding offers to move down from 3. Trying to get teams to leapfrog Memphis and deal with them. Orlando looking to trade up. Cleveland looking to trade up. Clippers looking to trade up. Dallas looking to trade up. All this hype is being driven for these 2 because sacremento seems so sacremento with regards to Bagley. And now look. Sacremento considering taking doncic. Trying to drum interest in their pick because divac has traded down every year as GM.
So the Grizz are actually going to trade down while dumping Parsons. May as well since neither Bamba nor Jackson will give them the time of day. Nobody likes that franchise.
This entire next season will boil down to who wins the battle of NYC between Lin/Brooklyn Nets & Parson/NY Knicks.
Yes! I would love for Dallas to take themselves out of the running for Capela by signing useless Gortat
