Dallas Mavericks Rumors: Kyrie Irving’s Handshake Deal, Deandre Ayton a Mavs Trade Target?



The Dallas Mavericks might have a handshake deal in place for Kyrie Irving and a trade set up for Deandre Ayton to help Luka Doncic. What should we believe about the Mavs Rumors going around?

Do the Mavs have a handshake deal with Kyrie Irving to return to on a 4-year max deal? Should the Mavs trade for Deandre Ayton? What will the Mavs do for the 10th pick in the NBA Draft? And I didn’t hit the ‘Rumor Has it’ Drop once the entire show, so some of you should be happy.

  1. The Mavs have to resign Kyrie then release players with big cšŸ˜…ntracts like Bertans and THJ and give that money to Jalen Brown from Boston to have 3 headed monster.

  2. WE NEED RUI! That man's consistency needs to be brought to light. Also imagine the clean dishes to him from Luka. Rui stretches the defense because of the shooting ability and Luka can create an opening for whoever he needs to get the ball too. We need more consistent scoring. Ayton will not give us that. He can't stay healthy.

  3. We must get a team together if you sign Kyrie, be Miami, get some good tough players. More important to get players who just love to play, Ayton not sold on him. Some more three point shooters, and tough bigs. Then leave them alone and let the coaches coach.

  4. I cringed every time I heard the word "undrafted" during that Heat game knowing that the Mavs FO was hearing it too while watching that team dismantle the Celtics.

  5. I think Ayton's "value" is close to zero in a sense- hear me out.
    I think the value of an asset is equal to what he generates ABOVE MARKET VALUE FOR HIS CONTRACT combined with the opportunity cost of the asset in question. Luka at whatever his "true" value is isn't worth a roleplayer at their "true" value because you can find roleplayers, but you can't find Lukas.
    Ayton's contract is probably punching a bit higher than his actual production, so his entire worth is based on how easily you can find someone like him. And it's not easy, but it's not nearly impossible.
    Throwing in the 10th overall pick is absurd to me, because I think a roll of the dice on basically anyone tall and young is roughly where Ayton's value is; the pick is the opportunity cost and the value of an unknown is bearish. So if it's going to be involved, it roughly needs to be a deal for the 10th pick and offloading a bunch of bad but more mobile or expiring contracts.
    Dallas gets a distressed asset with potential and massive risk, Phoenix gets the 10th best pick in the draft and a bunch of contracts that are net negatives but more liquid- which they'd immediately need to move (so the multi-team deal makes sense, but if there are multiple teams, is Ayton Dallas's best target for the 10th pick?)
    I don't think Phoenix does this, because it's a rebuilding move and they're not there. It's really hard for teams in Dallas's and Phoenix's positions to break bread in trades like this.

  6. THJ, Mcgee, Geen and 10pick is too much for Deandre Ayron. For this deal, Suns should give pick to Mavs. Bertans, THJ and 10 for Deandre Ayton should go.

  7. Would you do the sign and trade for some sort of a combination of Reeves, Rui, Vanderbilt, etc?

  8. I highly doubt the plan is to give Kyrie a max contract and get ayton cause then youā€™re just killing your depth and there is no actual championship run. If the mavs want ayton Kyrie will needed to be traded. Personally Iā€™d rather try Ayton with Luka than run it back with Kyrie but I can also see the mavs not wanting to give up Kyrie now thah they have him.

  9. I would sign Kyrie and go out and get some Defensive Players and Draft Some 3 point shooters to surround Luka Doncic with if you think about it we basically Screwed ourselves when we traded away our Best Defenders so Go get help and sign Kyrie and of course go draft 3 point shooters

  10. Suns fan here i simoly clicked cus i saw DA in the title and ill gladly have yall take him bro soft as baby shit I'll take the package thats floating around javale tim green and the 10th pick šŸ«±šŸæā€šŸ«²šŸ½he'll be yalls problem

  11. I think itā€™s important to always remember that Kyrie Irving is BAD at relationships (i.e., Lebron, KD, coaches, fans). Donā€™t rely on any relationship to trump his narcissism.

  12. Nico Harrison and Jason kid probably are signing over their rights to be GM and coach of the team if they re-sign Kyrie. I wonder if they have been keeping up with current events, or are in some type of rich person's bubble? The inability to coach and inability to manage could lead to wasting prime years of Luka doncic being in Dallas. I hope not, but all the evidence leads us that outcome, if you have common sense. But if you are a serious gambler with a problem? I could understand this decision by the Dallas Mavericks

  13. Wendy has always been pro Lebron since his days of covering the Cavs. Dude just be saying nonsensical things whenever theirs news surrounding Lebron whether thatā€™s directly or indirectly

  14. if u can maneuver some money around and kyrie signs for less than max for the possibility of bringing in a stud two way wing u do it. if i were the front office i would work on a wing and a big. jarrett allen is better than deandre ayton. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander wants to play for a contender. Jaylen Brown might be available. Khris Middleton is a free agent. Milwaukee needs to get younger and Jrue Holiday might want to play with his brother so maybe both of those players are available if Dallas wants to win now. Bradley Beal would be a great third option. If we want a center like Deandre Ayton it would cost us a 10th pick and a Josh Green which means we wouldn't be able to have capitol to get a wing. Jarrett Allen is obtainable without the 10th pick. which means u can get a Bradley Beal w the 10th, Josh Green, and Bertans. I would rather have Jaylen Brown if the Celtics go for it. If they do, we could give THJ and Powell and or Kleber for Jarrett Allen. If the stars aligned this would be the Dallas Mavericks starting lineup.

    Luka Doncic PG
    Kyrie Irving SG
    Jaylen Brown SF
    Christian Wood PF
    Jarrett Allen C

  15. if mavs resign Kyrie, i dont wanna see Deandre sh8ton rumours again lol we can't afford having just Luka and Kyrie with overrated and overpaid bigman

  16. If we only need a center for rebounds and rim protection, why trade away assets and pay $30 mil a year for Ayton-type player, when we can just draft one? Might be a little high, but I say draft Lively at #10, and see what we can get for THJ and Bertans

  17. Oh boy, watching the playoffs it is all about defense and how many scoring options team has. A team with a superstar (Luka) and four gritty defenders who are also scoring 15-20 pts a night, thatā€™s the way to go. These four are new additions to start fresh and rebuild around. Keep Maxi, Hardy, Reggie, and Josh for bench strength and continuity.
    And let Kyrie go. I am a huge fan but thatā€™s a mortgage for years that could break the franchise and two months was long enough to realize it would not work well.

  18. If we give green in any trade, we loseā€¦.. we canā€™t give up a wing unless we get 2 in return. Josh is a grunge starter right now, we cannot lose him. And if we shop bulloc we need 2 rotational wings in return.

  19. What does anybody think about a double signing trade Kyrie for Reeves and Rui. One's about to be a restricted the other one's about to be restricted as well so they could be signed and traded for Kyrie

  20. Bro I agree when Isaac said let's end the pod now. There's no freaking way that you would do that. I would take DA everyday for the next millennia over minimum DP
