Same. I want him to get the respect he deserves there. Multiple MVPS....but no titles. Let him move on to win those.
This isn't close to true. Ya'll just overreacting because everyone hates Nicole now.
I'm here.
And social media is going nuts about how grimes is better. Cool. He might be. But he's getting phased out by Christie(who's younger and might already be as good and a much better defender) and Exum(better ball handler, better defensively) than Grimes.
Grimes was also going to get a nice big contract this offseason. Even if the Mavs weren't cheap, they wouldn't have the room to sign him.
Martin is also a 3, bigger wing which the Mavs needed. And he has a very tradable contract under control for 3 more years.
It's not some "win" trade...but a decent "along the margins" trade of role players.
They got a good contract, for a type of player they need, and gave up a guy who won't be here next season so actually found value in him.
I know why we all hate the Judas Nicole....but this was not a bad trade in the slightest.
