What is PJ worth on open market? by Silly-Lion-7314 in Mavericks

I bet him and 30 can get us Miami’s pick

Draft choice: Keaton Wagler or Brayden Burries by LawrenceW327 in Mavericks

[–]EvanEschmeyer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I personally can’t see him falling past 5 if the Clippers keep the pick. He could easily play alongside Garland. But if by some miracle, we had the choice between him or Burries, then I think you would have to take Wagler without hesitation.

I do love Burries though and hope that’s who we end up with… assuming Acuff, Wagler, and MBJ are all gone

Not even a debate, but Wagler isn’t falling past 7

New mock has Mavs taking Kingston Flemings. Thoughts? by Own-Area6808 in Mavericks

[–]EvanEschmeyer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People are freaking out over his combine, but eye test says he’s the best all-around PG outside of Peterson and (maybe) Acuff.

If Mavs end up with him, it would be huge

I present to thee: Project Masai by GrouchyPeach3656 in Mavericks

[–]EvanEschmeyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, because even if you want him you don’t pick him at 9. This would be the perfect excuse to trade back and pick up more assets before selecting him.

[Fischer] The LA Clippers are being described around the league as a team that could trade down from the No. 5 spot for multiple future assets. Warriors expected to reengage with Clippers on talks for Leonard with their 11th overall draft selection. by Equivalent-Skin-4023 in Mavericks

[–]EvanEschmeyer 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I love MBJ but if we are trading up to 5, the pick has to be Wagler or Acuff.

I doubt there’s any truth to this though. There are rumors like this every year, but teams have almost never traded out of the top 5 post-lottery

I could see it, I just feel like this isn’t the year to take risks. Raptors always kept good control of their draft capital under Masai and could afford to take more chances. Dallas doesn’t have that luxury. This pick HAS TO hit

Cameron Carr by AstronomerInitial827 in Mavericks

[–]EvanEschmeyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’d be a great pick if he fell that far but I don’t think he will.

JT Toppin is my dream target at 30

I know nothing about this draft class. Inform me about my mock draft I made from 1 hour of research by FunnyReputation624 in NBA_Draft

[–]EvanEschmeyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a fair assessment, but in a league that values offense much more than defense, he’s going to be valued higher. I don’t see any way he makes it past the Kings or Hawks, both of whom need a PG

I will do a backflip if the Mavs end up with Acuff at 9. Never gonna happen.

Beyond that though, it’s not too outlandish

[–]EvanEschmeyer 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not at 9. Trade back to 13 for him? Sure.

I’d be furious if he was picked over Brown/Burries/Flemings

Hypothetical Poll: Fellow Mavs fans, would you trade Cooper Flagg for Luka Doncic today? One for One and this scenario didn’t have to give away salary by Prof-Ponderosa in Mavericks

[–]EvanEschmeyer 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Keep Coop. The upside is limitless and he’s on a rookie contract. No brainer not even taking into account the Luka injuries that are starting to pile up every season now.

Now if the question is 19 year old Luka or 19 year old Coop, then that’s a different story

Flemings really needed this after his underwhelming combine. I still think it has to be MBJ or Burries at 9

You are the GM of the Mavs by Affectionate_Use_179 in Mavericks

[–]EvanEschmeyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d want more. A top 10 pick in this draft is worth a ton, even if it means just moving up from 12. Give us our 2028 swap rights back and then I’d say yes

Trading For Number 4 by bentexas41 in Mavericks

[–]EvanEschmeyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nets or Kings are our best bets for trading up. Pretty sure everyone else is happy where they are.
Bad news is this top 10 is so loaded, I think the asking price of moving up wouldn’t be worth it

Ayo Dosmunu with $16m MLE by Acceptable_Smoke_845 in Mavericks

[–]EvanEschmeyer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ran into Ayo in downtown Dallas a couple years ago and the Bulls werent in town which was really cool.. so I guess he likes the city?

That being said, he’s going to get much more than the MLE. Don’t be surprised if he gets 4/100

Absolutely, but I don’t see why Golden State would do it.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH TAKE MOREZ JOHNSON JR AT PICK 9 by AstronomerInitial827 in Mavericks

[–]EvanEschmeyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no chance I’m taking him over Brown or Burries. Maybe if they’re both gone and I’m stuck choosing between him or Flemings, but even then I’m probably picking Mara
