Dallas Marvelix By exchanging Luca Dongsic, I did another surprising trade a few days after the impact on the world. Los Angeles Rakes For Anthony Davis.
Marvelix picks up the second round of 2025 with Quentin Glimes Philadelphia 76ers For Caleb Martin According to Shamsticarania of ESPN insider。 The second round of the trade was originally belonging to the Philadelphia, but now it is 37th place at the time of this transaction.
Maverick and Lakers were hoped to continue their movements before the trade deadline on Thursday. We are already I sold three transactions that Lakers should do Before the deadline. MAVS GM NICO HARRISON said that Dongsic trade was done to “defend the championship.” This contract is an extension of its philosophy again.
Evaluate both Sixers and Mavericks Martin-for-Grimes swaps and try to understand the motivation for both teams for transactions.

This quote is notorious if Marvelix cannot beat the championship with Anthony Davis. It is also a logic that informs this latest movement from Dallas.
“I think the defense has won the championship,” said Mavs GM's Nico Harrison about the motivation to exchange Luca Dancic with Anthony Davis. “I think you can get better opportunities by acquiring all defense centers and All NBA players with defense. https://t.co/ipfqva4str

Glimes was an aggressive player this year than Martin. Glime is 5 years old. Martin is still doing some for him. He is bigger, he is a better defender, and he has already signed a long -term contract, but Glimes needs a new contract this summer.
Signing Martin with a four -year $ 35 million contract away from Miami Heat appeared like a master stroke of 76ers this summer. It turned out to be a big disappointment, like almost every land of this year's Sixers Land.
Martin has one of the worst years in his career in the season like a Filadelphia nightmare. The 29 -year -old wings were always intended to support the superstars by doing dirty work and spacing the floor. The entire Filadelphia team has collapsed, and Joel Enbido is limited to 13 games due to knee injury. It was easy to imagine that Martin's strict defense defense was a great addition to the core of Enbid, Paul George, and Tauryeze Maxy, but after Enbido's injury and George's physical death, Martin was Martin. You may not have had a chance.
Martin shot 37.9 % to 37.9 % at the time of trade. He has achieved an estimated plus/negative and positive defender in the 72 -percentile ranking. With a powerful frame and 6'10 wing width, MAVS reconstructs a team around Davis and Kyrie IRVING, and he can match up with a larger Wing scorer.
Martin is not a very good and aggressive player other than his low volume shooting. His true 53.1 shooting is far below the league average, and he has only 14 % low usage. He can't do anything from dribbling, and no teammates are going to create a shot. Mavericks really need to create shots after a smooth Donsic trade, and Glimes is a much better shot creator.
This movement is a peaceful movement by MAVS. This year, DonCIC's trading gained the team quietly from luxury tax. If they were Grimes and Martin's good second round picks, they may not want to increase their salary in the future. I don't think Glime will command that This summer, much more than Martin at the open market. He can get a mid -level exception that costs about $ 14 million a year. Martin earns less than $ 10 million.
Glimes are much more connected wings than the creator of the real shot, but you'll want Marvelix want Some The aggressive upside -down of the guards other than the Killy after Donsik Trade. This transaction is much lower than the Lakers trading, but it is still a head scratcher for Dallas.
Grade: C
76ers Trade Grade to acquire Quenging Limes
After the down year of last season, Glime regained his position as a promising young player and saw him trading from. New York Knicks On Detroit piston。 Mavs GM NICO HARRISON was able to separate him from Detroit by providing photography in return for Tim Hardaway Jr. Last week, Glimes could easily grasp it as a long -term work for Dongsic's Donglas. How did things change in just a few days?
Philadelphia not only acquired better young players in contracts, but also gained draft options. In recent second rounds in recent years, there are many success stories, and Six has gained another shot by using this pick from Dallas to find a draft useful player.
The numbers per 36 people of Grimes are 16.1 points, 6 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.1 steel per game. He shoots 39.8 % from 3.3 trials for each game. Or, 9.1 trials for each of 100 owners. He has returned to 60 % of real shooting, just as he was during the promising second season with Knicks. He is a better volume shooter than Martin, a more efficient overall scorer, and offers a more dynamic attack from dribbling.
This year, Glims is ranked into 49 -percentile of defense EPM, but not so bad. I think he has a higher ceiling as a defender than that, and he should fit well around the Maxi or a bench unit when he is resting.
This transaction does not change the miserable season of Six, but adding high -quality young players is a great work. Philadelphia spent a season from hell, but Daryl Molly has always found a way to do a good deal for his team.
Six grade: A
