[MacMahon] There is internal acknowledgment within the Mavericks franchise that Rich Paul has been aggressively persistent in pushing for an Anthony Davis extension or a trade to an extension-willing team, but Mavericks sources maintain that the team’s approach is not being altered by that pressure.

  1. I swear to god if they extend AD but “didn’t want to give Luka a max contract”, I will fight Patrick Dumont if I ever see him in person.

  2. What’s his leverage? That he’d decline his $60M option and walk after next year? That Rich Paul won’t let his clients sign with the Mavs?

  3. Didn’t Stein come out and say he needed to play 50-60 games in order to be trade eligible?

  4. That’s why you get off this circus if you can, even if it’s only expiring contracts. 29 out of 73 games played for us so far and has the nerve to push for an extension.

  5. No team is giving ad a substantial extension. Rich Paul is stuck in like 2020 when he had leverage from the players he represented when negotiating contracts. Well most of those players are washed and teams are tired of him.

  6. Im alright with a trade to an “extension willing team”. If there’s a sucker out there who wants him that badly then ok.

  7. Maybe Paul can help us find a team that will sign him and we can get a little return on investment.
