[Josh Bowe] the mavericks turned THJ, derrick jones jr, josh green into quentin grimes, naji marshall, and klay thompson and they’re still below the first apron.

    Nico out here performing miracles when I was previously told Salah Mejri and Yogi Farrell was the best we could do haha

    Just losing THJ is addition by subtraction.

  3. resetbrain22

    Who could we get now with the money left?

  4. YoStepWithLuka77

    Whoever is working the books for the mavs need a huge raise. This is incredible

    New nickname for Nico is “The Bear”

    Let him cooooook

  6. XerxesCrofter

    Klay is an upgrade. The other two seem like lateral moves, at best.

    Still, I expect defensively challenged Klay to offer a lot more on offense that did defensively challenged THJ, so overall the Mavs have gotten better.

  7. GoatLuka

    Luka / Kyrie / Klay / PJ / Lively

    Hardy / Exum / Grimes / Marshall / Gafford

    Just give us the ring already

    DJJ is really the only loss here. Green’s defense and pressure on the ball was nice, but not unique. THJ is THJ..

    But DJJ brought a different type of energy to the floor. Not only was his defense nice, it was also lob city when him and Luka were out there.

    I think at worst we got slightly worse on defense but much better on offense.

    Dafuq, we still below the first apron? Nico, you magnificent shoe salesman-turned-gm.

    Not lateral moves “at best,” just not accurate

  12. Dirks_Knee

    That’s actually kinda incredible, what a shocking difference a competent GM makes. I’m skeptical of Klay as an absolute difference maker, but I questioned Ky’s fit as well and it’s been great so here’s to an exciting new season.

    And improved the team without touching neither of the two 1st round picks or touching our top rotation players. People have been so willing to include those picks in trade suggestions, but next year’s pick is pretty damn valuable. That is suppose to be a very deep draft. That can be another cheap rotation player with upside next year. Or use it if we need to make a bigger move later.

  14. Not gonna lie, losing DJJ is a bummer for me. And for nothing? Ugh.

    But if…

    JGreen ~ Grimes

    DJJ ~ Marshall

    Then we’re left with…

    Klay >>> THJ

  15. grandkidJEV

    Nico is executive of the year already, idc

  16. Afraid-Department-35

    Nico fat W. Naji and Grimes are about the same players between Josh and DJJ with both having lots of room for improvement and Klay is a definite upgrade over THJ.

  17. SuckMyyDirk41

    This team is going to be so much better. Pj, Lively, Hardy and Omax improving as well!😮‍💨 sheesh, we’re loaded

  18. Just think how good the Mavs would have been during Dirk’s time if they’d had a GM as good as Nico.

  19. grandkidJEV

    Think about it, Nico turned DFS, Spencer Dinwiddie, Josh Green, a FRP, and 2 tanked games into Kyrie, Klay, and Lively II. Plus got off of Bertans and THJs dumb contracts, while also pivoting away from Grant Williams & Richaun Holmes to get PJ and Gafford. He literally brought in our top 5 players not named Luka…for next to nothing

  20. pornserver-65

    i dont know why cha took that green contract lmao. its going to age badly because i dont think green is a very good player and hes going to make 13 mil per year? hes not worth half that 🤣🤣🤣

    did dallas retain any of it!? nico once again pulls off a wizards move and makes that contract someone elses problem.

  21. shapez13

    When you put it this way, I am no longer sad about DJJ or Josh Green. THJ thank you for your services
