Mavericks willing to trade anyone not named Luka Doncic or Kristaps Porzingis for third star, per report

Its just dumb for Mavs on letting Doncic and Porzingis to be traded off.Who would be your guess to be their third star?

Giannis Antetokounmpo is their ultimate dream, hopefully they can get him even without trading their present stars.
Other names, I don't know because Luka has been playing as PG of them team, so they need some stars not on PG position, how about Westbrook?

There are many too rumors when it comes to Giannis Antetokounmpo, there are some platforms and media that heat is interested to him and also there are some that saying Mavs is interested to get him. I think the highest probability is seeing Antetokounmpo in Mavs for me because the Mavs is currently forming a big 3 wherein they say that they can let go other players except to Luka and KP. Another big man in their team will make them conquer the next season for sure but still it is just a rumor and there is only small possibility that may happen. I'm now excited to see the next season and how are the teams will form a good and strong team that will considered as another level team.

I dont know what their salary cap is but they would probably have to dump a bunch of money to get a max star. NBA has a salary cap so you cant just indefinitely add superstars at will lile you can in baseball.

I'm sure Lebron doesn't mind that, as long as he and Davis will be healthy in the next 4 years and bring more championship to the Lakers, he will be down with that.

Lebron will be almost 40 years old after the next four seasons. Undecided

IIRC, his contract with the Lakers will expire after the next two years, and he has the option to become a free agent in the 21/22 season. Who knows, maybe he will retire after that.

I hope that he won't.

He's still a lot to offer for any team where he's going next. But I hope that if his contract expires with LA, he's going to renew it and will end up retiring with them.

I think he'll do that for Mamba.

We cant tell but it would be great if he would stick out with LA until he retires but who knows on what inside to his mind and he might be considering on switching to other
teams again and plan to get some ring. 4 years might be short but age of 40 doesnt mean that you would necessarily to retire.

Yeah,

We will never know what's on the mind of Bron but we all know how he's respecting the Mamba. Maybe some tribute before his retirement would actually happen.

And that's mindblowing if he decides to stay until the end with LA.

At his age now, I think he will just retire with the Lakers as long as he will have some star to stay with him like Davis.

With the last championship, he made a history already.

This is also why Stephen A. Smith, a pure Knicks fan is so mad when they didn't try to offer or even have a meeting with KD and Kyrie.

This is just my speculation but I think the reason why NYK didn't push for Durant is that they aren't sure about KD's plan in the future. It might destroy their plan if KD suddenly changed his mind as signing him will cost them exchanging a possible future rising star in the draft pick.

If we look at KD's current contract in Brooklyn, the team made a gamble that on Durant's 3rd year, he has a player option, either he will stay or not in the team. In other words, the upcoming season is the only time wherein Brooklyn can take advantage of KD (because KD was being ruled out to play in 2019-2020 because of his injury.)

But whatever it is, I like Brooklyn Nets to be one of the contenders in the Eastern Conference next season. Their fans are waiting. I hope KD and Kyrie will be at their 100% healthy status. Like to see a much competitive Eastern Conference.

Good read here.
20 questions about NBA trade market
I'll just grab one that I am intrigued with.

Quote

3. Where will CP3 (and OKC's other vets) wind up?
Chris Paul had such a stellar season with the Oklahoma City Thunder that he could find himself on a contender again. Milwaukee makes sense in theory, but so do a bunch of other teams that are either already among the elite or think they would join the elite with Paul in the fold.

Bucks can afford him if I am not mistaken.
And, they need a veteran on their roster. Someone who could really lead.
I don't think it is Giannis time to lead a team yet. Put someone else. CP3 could be that guy and then, they have a playmaker.
Thoughts?

You do not focus on the role players or even players on your line up that are not Lebron or AD. When you have AD and Lebron you offer them the most money you could potentially ever afford, if you have to get 8 free agent veteran minimum players around them you will do that, it is just not possible to make the team this good without paying him that much money.

However one thing is for sure, they have some salary they could shed off, and they could definitely sign good or decent level players with veteran minimum because they are the champions and players could come to that alone. Which means Lakers will give AD whatever they technically could, there is a limit obviously due to CBA but whatever that limit is, Lakers will be ready to give that without a doubt in their mind.

It's a huge amount of money that an NBA player would want, Davis gets the championship at get's the biggest salary in the NBA, there's no reason to leave if Indeed the Lakers will offer him that amount, he even has a bigger salary than the king.

I'm sure Lebron doesn't mind that, as long as he and Davis will be healthy in the next 4 years and bring more championship to the Lakers, he will be down with that. And AD with his first ring experience, will definitely love to stay with the Lakers. The management seems to fit the puzzle together specially when he joined and continue the tradition of Lakers winning again.

The question is will Lakers be really interested in signing Anthony Davis on his desired contract especially with the news coming in that the Salary Cap might even decrease for the next season. If this happened and Davis don't want to sacrifice money in order to win more championship I doubt the Lakers would be able to afford him. Him wanting a bigger contract and the Lakers signing them will mean that they would have less wiggle room in signing other role players to be able to make another championship team. If they want to make more championships Davis should not be looking for another max contract.

In the long run, Lakers will be happy to pay him that big, win-win situation, and if the supporting casts will also stay, they are going to be very hard to beat as long as Lebron and AD are fit and well and mentally tough to make a run for another trophy.

The Lakers may have an easy journey to the championship last season but not next season, the teams that are also contender to be the NBA champion are now healthy. We will see a healthy GSW, Brooklyn Nets, and the more improve LA Clippers.

The would not win if they will not get a real superstar, Durant could have change this team, regardless of who he will play with because he is really special, not as good as Lebron in terms of overall performance but you can trust him in big games, plus he already earn championships and won finals MVP, there's nothing he can do.

I don't know, maybe Knicks are kinda concern with Durant health as he was serious injured.

That may be the problem of their management.
They don't take risks anymore.
Remember they let go of Kristaps Porzingis. Just an injury makes them back off with good players. Worse, great players.
Are they tired of keeping injured players and maybe giving them a chance next year?
What will they lose? Nothing! They had never been in the playoffs for a long time. What is one year to wait for a player to heal?

Sorry, getting emotional again. Grin

That particular decision makes them more worse than ever, letting Melo first then Porzingris then do nothing after.

Knicks really have the chance to communicate and deal with KD and Kyrie they can offer the money if they pushed it more, the superstars can build role players around them, the talents are enough to encourage more fans to support this team.
No one knows the real intentions of their managements to this what they've called rebuilding, are they still in the foundation stage? The longer they've take the more fans to leave them.

Or maybe currently still tagged as a "plan".

The last playoff appearance was 2013 with stars in their midst.
Melo, JR Smith, Kidd, Chandler, Kenyon Martin, and more. They are filled with stars and audiences are used to this kind of roster.
Why? Yeah, they can afford it with their high salary cap.
If you look at their roster now, it's difficult to say it is really a Knicks team.

The good thing about Michael Jordan was his skill to bring his team into finals when he was in Chicago Bulls and not only that, He managed to win 6 of them. also, he became the NBA Finals MVP in all six NBA championship that's insane for a player who played in Chicago Bulls for his six-season career.

Let's also give credit to his teammates. Their lineup was really one of the best during their championship seasons. Jordan's skill is superb so when blended with his teammate's skills, the result is they turned into a monster team.

And just want to clarify your last statement, Jordan's journey in Chicago is not just six-season but 13 seasons. He also experiences struggles and difficulties in his early years and even a first-round sweep at the playoffs but he came back strong every year. Their team's GM is also good at acquiring role players that help the Chicago Bulls reached their stardom.

Filled that team with good roleplayers.
Kukoc is one of them. One of the best and hard working players of Bulls.

About their GM, somehow he is also questionable with his decisions.
We all saw that at "The Last Dance".
It could have been 7 or even 8 championships if only he agreed with the team extending more years for Phil.
But ego wins and the team scattered away with Phil.
