Hey guys! As a long time mavs fan (im german and Dirk hooked me to NBA basketball) and Magic supporter since you drafted Franz i came up with a trade idea that could possibly make both teams serious threats for the second round and even more. Orlando lacks spacing from the point guard position while Dallas desperately needs to improve defensively. So what about a trade centered around Irving and Kleber in exchange for WCJ, Fultz and Isaac? The magic offense would move up at least one tier while they have the personell to hide irving on defense. The mavs have enough shooting power to make a second unit offense run by Fultz work and would dramatically improve their defense. Looking forward to the discussion
Irving is 31, turning 32 in March. We would have to be the absolute dumbest team to switch to win now mode for an oft injured Irving who is past his prime. Hard pass
The time of lottery picks seems to be over anyway, so yes, the magic should switch to win now mode. Im not suggesting a crazy all-in trade with five firsts involved…
