13 million in 2 years, Mavericks sign water! Team reporter sighs that the luxury 15-man roster has surpassed the championship Thunder

2 years, the Mavericks signed a targeted substitute "water pull" Russell! The super luxurious 15-man roster was released. The team couldn't help but post a message to lament that the Mavericks' paper lineup has surpassed the defending champion Thunder, and will be the biggest imaginary enemy of all Western teams in the new season.

2-year, 13 million signings

According to ESPN reporter Shams, the Mavericks signed free agent Russell with a two-year, $13 million contract.

Salary expert Bobby Marks followed up and pointed out that the Mavericks used the $5.7 million mini middle class to sign Russell.

For the Mavericks and Russell, this is a joint effort that each takes, perfectly meeting their current needs.

First, the Mavericks introduced an Irving stand-in with a cost-effective contract to resolve the vacancies at the No. 1 position. According to previous sports injury expert Dr. Evan Jeffries, Irving, who suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, is expected to miss 9-12 months.

According to Irving's injury in March, he will return in December this year or next March, which is the second half of the 25-26 season.

Therefore, the Mavericks' biggest goal in the offseason is to introduce a point guard who is able to play the starting lineup when Irving is absent, and after Irving returns, he can seamlessly integrate into the bench.

Previously, the Mavericks had turned their attention to Ju Holiday in the trading market and Paul in the free market. In comparison, Russell, who finally signed the contract, was obviously a better choice.

On the one hand, when the Mavericks introduced him, he only paid a very cost-effective contract and had no other bargaining chips. On the other hand, Russell averaged 12.6 points, 5.1 assists and 2.8 rebounds per game in the 24-25 season. At the same time, he has been a point guard who can play in the regular season stage so far, perfectly meeting the needs of the Mavericks.

For Russell, joining the Mavericks is also a good choice, because Irving will be absent for a long time, and he will surely gain a lot of opportunities and stable role positioning in the regular season.

, plus the Mavericks have an extremely luxurious lineup, which is recognized as one of the favorites in the 25-26 season. With the support of "Son of the United States", Flag, the exposure and attention must be very high, which will amplify Russell's performance and will be conducive to competing for the next contract. The second year of the

2-year $130 million contract is the player option, which facilitates the next home to prove himself after re-selecting the next home in the summer of 26.

The Mavericks' 15-man roster is extremely luxurious

With the Mavericks signing Russell, the Mavericks, who have completed operations such as Irving's contract renewal and Gafford's contract renewal so far, have further upgraded to the 15-man roster, which is extremely luxurious.

point guards: Irving, Russell and Brandon Williams;

point guards: Clay, Christie and Hardy;

small forwards: No. 1 Flag, Marshall and Martin;

power forwards: Davis, PJ Washington and Prosper;

centers: Lefley, Gafford and Powell.

On the paper, the Mavericks' lineup is perfect, with top stars like Irving and Davis, second-tier stars like Clay, and super star Flag. Blue-collar players have a variety of abilities to meet the needs of various lineups.

The most important thing is that there are sufficient personnel reserves in all positions and there are no obvious shortcomings.

Team Records are bold enough to surpass Thunder

Team Records Nick Angstadt commented that he was also a Texas team Rockets reinforcement team, and bluntly stated that the latter was obviously afraid of the Mavericks, so he signed Capela after renewing Adams.

Mavericks Kevin Gray Jr expressed his approval: "The Mavericks have surpassed the Thunder and become the biggest imaginary enemy of the Western teams. They are all strengthening the lineup against the Mavericks, not the champion Thunder."
