You know the drill boys. Sorry for the length but people actually filled out their pickems this year and nobody is sure who's tanking. Except the Warriors, they are definitely tanking. Derek, Nav, Joe and Tyler (first O/U appearance!) on this one. Enjoy!

Agreed!

I've been scanning the boards for days looking for a better SF, but there seems to be a lack of availability. Either way, I am not trading 2 firsts to bring AK back. I would think about it with no firsts. I don't think Barnes is so bad - shooting super efficiently with low turnovers, and Williams was a big piece of the playoff run. I do have ~$12.5m of available contracts and 5 DAL picks (18-22) to go after another wing piece, so hit me up!

And shout out to Tyler for continually believing in the Mavs!

Think my bench was judged rather harshly! We got guys!

On the Horford as an option thing - he was kind of the only reasonable choice as third option for us last year and did about 19ppg on slightly above average efficiency. Maybe 5% better in that regard than Kawhi or Randle last season

Rudy Gay has definitely improved quite a bit throughout his second contract. If you ignore his third year when he was playing backup minutes for us, he's pretty steadily improved in all of the efficiency metrics as well as some of the counting stats like rebounding. In Portland he had two or three early negative TCs which was really not what I was hoping for. Maybe his luck has just evened out over time, idk
