    We should offer what we're offering to Pau to Dirk when Pau turns us down. With the shit going on in Dallas he might finally leave (but he won't).

    I don't know... For that package they'd have to think about it. They'd be awful and likely get 2 top 5 picks next year. Imagine adding a Harry Giles and Jayson Tatum to a Brown/Valentine/Portis core, and then having some $70M in cap space and another high pick from Brooklyn the following year. That approach is more likely to help them build a contender than keeping Butler surrounded by a bunch of bleh.

    Why don't the mavericks do the offer sheet on Barnes now, and get the Warriors while they have their pants down, waiting on Durant

    The draft is such a crapshoot though, Butler is a proven all-NBA type player, those guys just don't grow on trees, if I were Chicago I'd be talking to him and asking what he wants around him. Chicago does have assets to make moves themselves.

    Mahinmi on a big contract would have been desperation.

    64 mil for Mahinmi, glad we didn't pay that.

    If lee can get 12 and he's a pretty limited role player, I think crabbe will get more.
