    just a gut feeling....year before last I heard Cuban on a sports show comment on how he liked CJ's play. The other reason is I think Dallas needs another combo guard type that can flat out score and also takes some pressure off Doncic from handling the ball so much. Salaries match. Just a wild ass hunch.

    Neil isn't gonna trade a borderline all star in CJ for Porzingis. I see many people calling for his head but seeing some of the suggestions here in this thread I think it's better just to do nothing

    CJ and Przingis are on the same talent level.

    Disagree. Maybe pre-injury Poor Ol' Zingus.

    No they're not. You really want Porzingis on our team to prove it? Or are you trolling?

    He's still a big injuiry risk, and not a fit with Nurk, so I don't like a straight swap, but KP last year put up a career high PER, TS%, TRB%, WS/48, BPM.
    I think his defense has definitely seen better days, however. Although he's still a slightly better shot blocker than Nurk.

    Take off your homer glasses.

    Last year, both players statistically had their best seasons. Without looking, tell me which player is which:
    • Player A Player B
    • PER 20.8 21.3
    • TS% 0.577 0.582
    • 3p% 0.402 0.376
    • PTS/100 33.1 32.1
    • WS/48 0.141 0.154
    • ORtg 120 117
    • DRtg 118 110

    Neither one is legitimately an all-star talent. Both are good-but not great.

    Since LMA we haven't had a legit power forward that can average 19 ppg, 9rb's, 2 blks per game
    It would be a gamble, but in an instant we change our front line and we do have other guards to pick up the slack for CJ's scoring.
    I've seen him give Davis problems.

    He's no longer a PF, really.

    Do you even watch the other teams play in the playoffs? Why do you want the players who absolutely stank it up in the playoffs? First Simmons and now Porzingis? Were you even watching the games?

    CJ wasn't nearly as bad as Porzingis or Simmons, he wasn't a negative

    Yeah you didn't have to write the names, I knew CJ had more.
    Now, in the playoffs?

    Basing your comparison and decision on 6-7 games against a single team is such an illogical position it's not even worth addressing.

    Saying this for years
    Porzingis is a great example of why basketball metrics are hard to trust.

    Every time I watched the Mavs play with him on the court he stuck out like a sore thumb. Despite what the numbers said, he seemed to hold that team back. Just wasn't a good fit. He's 7-1 and he plays a lot of the time like he's a 6-3 set-shooter, so uncomfortable posting up that he negates his own height advantage. Just not a guy I fear at all on an opposing team anymore and if the Blazers traded CJ for him I think the Blazers would need something else coming back.
