Looks like Mavs will make a deal for Dragic after sign-and-trade of Lowry is done. So, Mavs' best available FAs are Dragic and THJ now? Oh, Pistons are potential landing spot for THJ now. Not so many options out there now.
Look like Lowry will sign with Heat and Dragic will end up in Toronto. Who else Mavs can get? Do we have any legit secondary playmakers other than DeMar DeRozan?
DeMar + Dragic will help Luka offensively. Forget defense now. We tried to bring defense with JRich and really missed Seth in the playoffs. DeMar's killer mid-range help us win down the stretch in playoffs. Teams still need mid-range shots in clutch time especially during playoffs.
I know Richardson has yet to opt in, but with his situation (his agent is Duffy) I believed Mavs has already been informed JRich's decision. But according to Brad Townsend, Nico Harrison don't know the answer yet.
