@victorakwaowo7998 27 дней назад

It really just depends on what kind of guard this team needs. Do we need a guard that can come off the bench who’ll give us shotmaking & playmaking off the 2nd unit, if so then Dinwiddie should be the target. Or do we need a true POA, pesky guard defender that we can put on a some of the good PGs in the league to make it difficult for them, if so then DSJ should be the target. If you ask me I’m going with DSJ. We are already going to have Hardy (Who I’m high on) that’ll be the main scorer off the bench. Also one of Luka, Kyrie or Klay will always play with the 2nd unit. I don’t worry about scoring on this team. This team doesn’t have a true defensive minded PG, and it’s clear that is DSJ’s main calling card. Also he would give us some much needed athleticism that we’ve lost with DJJ & Green gone.

@a.puerto5667 17 дней назад

@@Jorlaxe I would like to go see that comment. I can’t find it when I search it up. I believe Jones was a very good defensive wing, better than what the Mavs have had in a while. But let’s not act as if he was Kawhi Leanard out there. The Defense was already good before he started playing more minutes and starting in the playoffs. I can’t say he was our best defender when the defense got better once PJ and Gafford started getting chemistry with the rest of the team. Jones will be missed, but I have high hopes for Grimes, who can easily take minutes away from Hardy and even Klay if he’s struggling like last season. Grimes can Defend as good as Jones. Jones was not known as some defensive stopper before coming here, you never know, maybe Klay becomes himself again on defense as he was when he was younger under Kidds defensive scheme. Or maybe Naji is a better Jones defensively next season. That’s to be determined obviously, but we haven’t seen these players play under Kidd, so we’ll see. DSJ won’t play much here because he can’t shoot, or is big enough to defend 6’6” wing players. I doubt he would take minutes from Hardy or Exum. Kidd likes tall players on the floor. I honestly only think he’s ok with Kyrie because it’s Kyrie and he’s gifted offensively.

@TheBleistift123 27 дней назад

As much as i love dsj but with his 3pt shoot he is almost unplayable beside kyrie or luka. He is no long enough to be switchable aswell. He just doesn't fit at all into our system. Widdie though would actually be a great addition. He showed he can play the perfekt 3. Guard role from the bench and is big enough on Defens. He would be the only player from the bench which can create his own shot and still pass out of this situations. That's so valuable. ... winwiddie is a nobrainer for the last spot to me, even with what he said last season.

He was our 3. guard coming of the bench for Brunson or Luka and he actually was part of the finishing five a lot of times aswell. look it up bro ... not that long ago in 22. The fit was perfekt because he is big enough to gaurd 2s and some 3s. so Brunson could Guard the smallest player on the court. He was a great fit back then and still would be a great fit now. Tall for his position, good enough of a shooter when open, can create his own shot, can pass out of his own creation, awesome finisher around the rim, was clutch back then.

We don’t have a “need” that we have to fulfill, you need someone who MIGHT have some use and raise your ceiling and that’s Spencer because hey just more talented, also having a reliable 3rd ball handler is a bigger “need” than another defender

@farukguney6894 27 дней назад

One thing people dont seem to recognize is DSJ isnt only a defender and nothing else. Also good at being disturbition PG who can challenge the rim. You wont need much shooting of him considering he will end up 5-10 minutes, will play with Hardy-Exum-Naji-Maxi-Klay most of the time. I was leaning on Dinwiddie but overall fit, chemistry, no difference on playmake on both side really makes DSJ a better option. My ideal scenario would be prove it vet min deal with Tyus Jones. Hell, if Tyus are sooo desperate, i rather send Maxi to sign him and bank on Omax which is a bad gamble but a guy like Tyus would make us second favorite to win a title.

@jarrodsullivan9141 27 дней назад

So far I think it is 14. Lawson 13. Powell 12. OMAX 11. Hardy 10. Exum 9. Maxi 8. Grimes 7. Naji 6. Gafford 5. Lively 4. PJ 3. Klay 2. Kyrie 1. Luka Hardy and Exum are interchangeable based on whether you need Exum ball handling and defense or Hardy scoring and shot creation. Everyone commenting will say Maxi is to high and although I would agree, this is what I think Kidd will do not what fans think he should do. We have to face facts that Kidd loves Maxi and unless Lively becomes an really good perimeter defender for a big and an occasional 3 point threat Maxi will play. He was 6th on MPG for both regular season and playoffs last season of the guys left on the team. The 3 guys we added will be above him but no one else. A good OMAX season could see him end up in Maxi's spot but to start with he will not play much.

DSJr showed me massive growth last time I saw him vs DAL. He went from (pardon me) dumb AF/ like Westbrook, to a true PG- He's smart and distributes on offense now. But Mavs lost a ton of above the rim athleticism from Green/Jones. I mean, prob the 2 best high-flying dunkers at SG in the NBA- Huge! DSJr is that, then some. Need some of that back. Note, if Kyrie goes down, we'll need that extra PG and since Exum plays Point, id like the defensive counterpart option in the backcourt. Also, Kidd plays a kinda 3rd bench unit look too. He'll go with Hardy 3rd unit, with a 2 Biggs/ 3 Guards look. Something to consider.

@jonathansilal2669 27 дней назад

I would say Spencer, need another guard that will be effective offensively and create so the usage rate of Luka & Kyrie isn't so high in the regular season. Spencer can easily get the Mavs 8-10 PPG with some assists. I like Hardy but he's not a PG, he's a scorer first, let him score. DSJ plays solid defense, but after that he can't shoot the 3 or space the floor to inconsistent offensively, & defensively has no kind of wingspan, with DJJ he could at least give you about 33-35% from 3. Spencer was solid on the Mavs. Fans need to remember he played perfectly behind 2 guards in Brunson & Luka. Im looking at guards out their and not much, so to me Spencer is the most comfortable and good option to me, to put the Mavs over. Then if they have another spot go after the other Morris, and roster is complete, good balance.

Spence is tall enough to play wing as well as guard. Its obviously him over DSJ that isn't even a debate but getting another guard isn't the main need for the Mavs right now. Got plenty from Kyrie, Klay, Exum, Hardy, etc. The issue is Forward depth as Maxi isn't good enough as a 3pt shooter and isn't reliable on defense without Gaff or Lively out there. Not to mention health concerns. We need depth behind PJ Washington.

But it’s a long season and who knows if any of these guys will stay healthy. All have shown a propensity to get nicked up. As always it’s who wants it the most And who we inevitably trade for at the deadline. No one can predict the future.

Neither I would rather have a big to back up, Derek, lively, and Daniel Gafford

@iMacaroniCheese 27 дней назад

ppl forgot that we need pg who can playmake when luka sits on the bench. dinwiddie is a big upgrade for exum, you can't play ky and dsj at the same time. I don't get why people bring up dsj and ky prolly don't like him.

@josephterrell2835 27 дней назад

DSJ gives you upside and defense. Dinwiddie just chose Lakers over Mavs a couple months ago because he doesn't want this 3rd PG role.

@glennvastine5713 27 дней назад

It’s who we can get, who we can afford who wants to be here. It’s not like we have a bunch of choices really. Not good ones anyway. God let’s get this over with. Only 100 more days till opening night. It all hinges on OMax being an all-star lol……

1st team: Luka, Ky, Klay, PJ, Lively/Gaff 2nd team: Hardy, Grimes, Naji, Maxi, Lively/Gaff Stash: Exum, Omax Team is set. I don't know why Dallas is enamored at trying to get guards every freaking free agency. Dallas hasn't needed to get a guard, much less a high profile one, ever since 2018. Since Luka was drafted, the team has always needed athletic defenders and/or shooters rather than guards. If for some quirky reason they REALLY need to get a guard this season, might as well trade Hardy coz every guard signing has been holding and will continue to hold him back. Maybe trade him and then get Tyus Jones or something. Otherwise, if the Mavs use the roster spot for vet presence, how about Taj, Lowry, Patty Mills, PatBev, Thad Young, or even Tristan Thompson. Or they could pick up KJ Martin as some sort of a project. Given Maxi's injury history, he can probably even compete for minutes as a backup PF.

It’s funny to me you don’t think Dsj can create when he averaged more points than Dan witty Dsj would be a exum upgrade/replacement

@smitteetv4778 27 дней назад

Dinwiddie more experience, better playmaking, shooting and his defense isn’t that too far off

Im on the rare train it seems for bringing back Dinwiddie over DSJ. Hes just the better talent at the end of the day

@Damehowell7 27 дней назад

DSJ > Dinwiddie IMO. More of a dawg, I think he would be motivated to produce at a high level within his role the 2nd time around. His athleticism is needed not to mention the fanbase would welcome him w/open arms. Aside from his contributions on the floor, it would be a good PR move with that roster spot.

@always_be_safe_5172 27 дней назад

i like dinwiddie his play making and bigger size and offense skill set can really help the mavs esp if luka or kyrie go out

@SDesWriter 27 дней назад

If Luka or Kyrie go out, Klay moves to SG, Naji moves to the starting lineup and you have better defense! You still have Hardy, Exum, Grimes on the bench with 2 of our big 3. Who are you going to get worth a shit that is willing to sit and not play for 20-30 games at a time?

@jonathansilal2669 27 дней назад

@@SDesWriter Hardy can't play the point, and his ball handling skills are so so, he's better as a scorer on the fly.

DSJ

@clubdrunkify 27 дней назад

I'm leaning towards Dinwiddie. We know what he brings and would be more of an offensive threat. Also, waive AJ. We don't need him on the roster. Open up another roster spot

@seancalhoun7752 27 дней назад

Kyrie is not a slouch defensively. Mavs got to take Spencer to spell Luka and Kyrie. Luka was fine defensively prior to injuries. Pick the player that makes the regular season easier for the stars. You sign Dinwiddie and he’s the first guard off the bench for Kyrie. DSJ will not save this team come playoff time. I think they’ll play Omax because they need Maxi replacement. Maybe not as a big man but PJ backup.

@Tall-Cool-Drink 26 дней назад

Odd man out is DPowell. There’s no need for him, unless he somehow develops a respectable jump shot.

@a.puerto5667 18 дней назад

For me it’s Dinwiddie, Mavs are in Win now mode, I don’t care for the young guys like Prosper or Hardy. Luka and Kyrie need experience next to them. DSJ can’t shoot for shit and is short if he had to play with Luka and Kyrie in a guard lineup in a spot minutes. Dinwiddie shot the ball well in his last 15 games for the Lakers and is a big guard. Which Kidd likes. If the Mavs don’t get Dinwiddie, just resigne Bullock for another 3 and D wing. And if they do want another guard, then trade for Brogdon, who played well under Kidd and off the bench for the Celtics or give John Wall a chance.
