Its like Lamarcus, everyone is waiting to see where KJ will sign. Hes Lebron right now. Im surprised there isn't any news about KJ taking meetings with other teams. Must have good people around him keeping things tight.
He shot 39% from the field last year, He shot 34% from the three point line he is poor in the lane, he is a poor defender and cannot handle tall defenders at all. There is a reason that he has played for 5 teams in the last 3 years.

Why would Dallas still sign Matthews and even dare to increase his salary? The Mavs have no chance at making the playoffs their just screwing them selves. Parsons for 15.5 per and Matthews for 17.5 per One coming off of micro, the other Achilles tear. Dirk's 37 and a complete 0 on defense, and this is the best Cuban can put around him?
I suspect Cuban knows the Mavs are gonna suck for the next few years and wants to reward Matthews loyalty.
Exactly what I'm thinking. You got to pay somebody. If you are in tank mode why not pay Wes. Only I would make it reverse payout. So each year it's gets smaller and make it team option the last year. That's what Morey would do in that situation.
