Mavs sign Harrison Barnes and Bogut

[Rell84shots]

Give a max contract to a player that every other team backed away from

Trade for an injury prone player so the other team can get better

Yet the Dallas media will still try to make this seem like a smart move

 

[SadimirPutin]

Bogut will be there to set some epic moving screens

Mavs about to hit 200 more threes as a team

 

[Professor Mac]

Mavs can't attract anybody else

All of the real free agents like to wear hoodies in their off time

 

[Illuminatos]

Mavs stay signing mediocre players.

 

[resurrection]

I don't understand why they wanna stay a middle of the road team.. Everybody knows being "average" is the worst thing to be in the NBA.. They need to destroy and rebuild

 

[x-factor7]

This is what the Mavs desperation gets you after striking out for the past few years. Did Barnes have any other suitors if they didn't offer him the max? I feel like a ton of teams shied away from him after his terrible finals performance.

 

[Fortunate Lee]

I think this dude will surpise a lot people, he was basically the 4th option on his team. So any fukk up was gonna be highlighted.

bogut
dirk
barnes
matthews
deron

lineup looks good on paper, and if this was 2011 dirk, and 2007 d will they would be a contender.

 

[IGSaint12]

The handcuffs are a deandre Jordan joke

They're saying they're gonna lock him up until he signs so he don't back out like deandre

Still the optics of it is horrible. I wouldn't do it personally.

bogut

Carlisle gonna get something out these fellas

 

[beenz]

Mavs stay treadmilling

they're gonna just continue to do so til dirk retires. but who can they realistically build around? not wes matthews.

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

I'm not counting on it but hopefully for Barnes' sake he can turn his career around with a bigger role. Maybe this is exactly what he needs to start playing to his potential.

 

[Remote]

This seems to be working out so far, even if the team's record isn't good.
