Was time to go, but appreciate what he brought.

Can they squeeze out more than 2? :wink:

Thank you for ECSF 2022 Game 7! And everything else. He'll get a ton of open corner looks in Dallas.

Multiple second rounders is a good return for someone you'd lose otherwise.

Good luck, Grant! Thanks for the memories!

The Mavs are getting a nice utility player who also happens to be a glue guy. I don't think he deserves to suffer Kyrie though.

Good luck to him. I'll miss him.

This kills. What’s the point of hitting a home run on a late second rounder if you can’t keep him?

Seconds over shooters

Dang, our superhero count took a hit. We're down to only Aquaman on the roster. And, who knows how long he even lasts?

LMK when we do that

I'm a big fan of Grant. I'll miss him and wish we'd just paid the dude but I wish him well in Dallas.

Thanks for getting us 3 second round picks Grant.
Hope Jaylen joins you soon to form a NBPA VP triumvirate.

Well we'll find out when we do hit a home run on a late second rounder.

Took Rozier’s number and I always held it against him lol.

Loved his improvement from the three but him trying to put the ball on the floor was a thing of pure terror.

That said, our defensive identity is certainly changing. I’m a little concerned if we have the personnel to challenge a team like the Bucks now. We lost our two best floppers lol.

They shipped off two of my favorite players. Might as well force Al Horford to retire too.

3 seconds for him. The new CBA is making 2nd rnd picks more valuable. Clearly, they wanted to move the two more vocal personalities out of the locker room too.

Grant was an amiable guy and I wish him well in Dallas. We need some grit and toughness back in the lineup now, where will it come from?

pretty disappointed in only 2 2nds for GW

Brad & coach Joe have acted all offseason as if they were very ready to move on from Grant, maybe it is only the contract demands maybe his very outspoken personality had worn annoying but Grant was a very VERY good utility role player, he cannot rebound at a high level or get his own shot but could absolutely do everything else while knocking it down at 40% from 3...

I think Brad will start the season with a bench of Brogdon Horford Banton Brissett PP and Houser ...see if oshae and or Banton unlock further as they fill perfect roles for their skillsets.

Barring a Brogdon move, or a possible JB stunner I believe Brad is done for a while !
