No worries...
ah my bad, i thought i was still responding to Mal who gave the proposal lol
No worries...
If Hornets said, we get 4 and an unprotected or Top 1 protected 2027 pick swap for 2, would you consider it?
IMO, we just move off of Fox before Harper's rookie extension kicks in (which lines up pretty nicely anyway)
Would it be possible to keep him if he agrees to a pay cut?
yep. we ride Fox during his prime. as good as Castle was and Harper should be, Fox is currently an all star caliber player who for the last few years has been able to sleepwalk to an efficient 25ppg while creating events on defense.
we then get a partial refund for him when Harper/Castle are ready to take over
Spurs just gave up pick 12 and still have SA 27 and MIN31 to go. It was not some steal even if it was solid value due to not giving up any meaningful players and dumping a bad deal in Collins.
He doesn't have a second year of a player option - we could just simply renounce him next summer. No need to take on a second year of him.
I’d say, take Harper at #2, and negotiate a trade package consisting of Dev, Keldon, and #14 for a big or combo forward. I’d like Sochan in my playoff team tbh.
I hope we draft Fleming or Bryant with 14 and don't trade that pick. Package Keldon and a bunch of 2nds for a PF.
Fox has one year left, 25-26 season.
Offer him a 3+1 extension after that, player option after 28-29 season.
Harper's extension kicks in 29-30 season.
Fox would earn max money in age 29, 30, 31 seasons and then either get traded or take a paycut.
It will all depend on how things play out, if we're a legit contender or even win a ring, I'm sure he'd be happy to stay.

LOL @ when that was considered our young core
Hope not!
Yeah the 3+1 is what I was thinking just came into play a lot more than before. The question will be whether Fox wants to bet on himself for a chance at that 10-year vet 35% max (my guess is that he wouldn't, because he'll know he'll be 31).
But the Spurs have options... Fox is not a problem here.
Don't forget Primo
GTFO of here with this garbage lol
For those who like Bailey's archetype... I think there is close to a zero % chance the Spurs take Ace. If you like Ace, just trade #2 and Devin for TMIII and #7, since TMIII is the 95% outcome of Ace Bailey anyway.
(For the record, I would need Herb added in to consider this deal)
The amount of Spurs fans out there thinking the Mavs are just going to trade #1 to the Spurs is wild lol
fleming would be nice but i'd also be okay with mcneeley.
the first one was Murray/White/Walker/Keldon/Lyles
Mavs officially won't entertain trade offers for Flagg.
On paper, Dylan is ideal if Mavs will try to get Giannis to team-up with AD. AD/Giannis/Dylan. Kyrie is out maybe the whole of next year with that ACL injury and AD is not getting younger. If Spurs can help facilitate and getting Flagg, why not?
But I’m still for keeping Dylan, run that 3-guards offense, draft defensive stretch Fleming and keep the pool of future FRP’s and swaps coming to fortify that Castle/Wemby/Dylan trio.
He'll be the next KG, tbh.
Mavs won't be relevant after 2027, he'll be stuck on treadmill rosters and Nico will bail.
ehh, if you're getting that from where im getting it this is all coming from Rich Paul on McAfees show saying "i dont think a trade will happen"
nothing official about it
with that said, i am virtually 99.9% sure this will be the outcome anyway
