1. I think he might. But to even get him to consider it the total would have to be competitive with whatever NY can manage for three years. Like I said above. With the news about NY, I can see an argument that 3 years might be the smarter way to go.
2. Allen in lieu of Roy is what I was thinking. With Roy and Lee as two possible substitutes for Ray. It'd be tricky enough to get Nash/Allen/Camby from a cap standpoint. I have a hard time imagining they could get Roy too. But I guess it just depends on what he's going to get paid. I have no idea where the market is on him right now.
3. Starting role. Opportunity to play with Nash/Allen/Marion/Dirk. Haywood would have to be moved/amnestied to make it possible, I'm sure. Marcus' presumably lower per-year (as compared to Wood) would probably also be required to make the acquisitions of both Steve and Ray possible as well. You'd obviously have to either re-sign Ian or get Pryz on a vet min deal or something like that, too.

Okay, so let me play along for a minute...
Camby - FA to be signed - James
Nowitzki - Wright
Marion - Carter - Crowder
Allen - Cunningham
Nash - West - Beaubois
I would have fun rooting for that team, but I think that our backcourt would get chewed up on defense. Maybe Cunningham could have more of an impact than I think he would.
EDIT: Forgot West in my chart...
