Like this deal a lot. Gives us the ability to get Burke and possibly Saric. And let Saric stay in Europe for a year like he wants to. However, doesn't Marion have a player option. Would he opt out to play for a contender?


So we trade for Marion and the #13 pick, then Marion opts out for nothing. What's the downside of that? We get the #13 pick for nothing.. that'd be awesome..

Yeah that was my point. Don't think that would happen though or else other teams would be all over that deal.

We've discussed this scenario before.

That can't happen. The deal would happen in July when the league year starts. Marion would already have opted in at that point. Dallas would have to pick a guy we want on a handshake deal.

If Marion subsequently opted out then Dallas either keeps the pick or we have to give them something. These things have happened.

Anyway, I hate this idea as its us giving up on FA before it even begins. For a old, overpaid 3 stopgap.

Drive is this just an idea of yours or based on anything you know?
