    Now I understand why they didn't throw a max deal at Capela. Why pay Capela the max when you can get paid to take Onuaku?

    I don't even think any of those guys are even power forwards except for Royce White. Those are all centers.

    Mentioned above - only 2020 2nd round pick owned by DAL is from GSW. So not that valuable...

    Nice, Morey back to stock piling his asset pile. I dig it, now we can include that with the future Ryan Anderson's trade.

    In his defense, Onuaku has skills. He's not even that undersized as a PF (though he'll never be athletic enough to control the paint as a center). To me, it seems that his problem centers around drive and determination. If Onuaku matures and gets his mind on the game, he has a slight chance to be a pro. But we can add his name to the long list of guys who can't seem to balance the mental side of things.

    Man, is Woj going dyslexic. Got everything in reverse.

    • Tilman paid Cuban (not vice versa)
    • Dallas gets the right to swap picks, not us.

    So let me get this straight - come the 2021 season we're still going to have James, Chris, Clint AND Golden State's second round pick? 2021 Champs confirmed.

    Nothing more than clearing a roster spot.
