Tanking is most likely the intelligent thing to do for the Mavs long-term future. However, it goes against my grain to develop an intentional strategy for a high lottery pick. I would rather pick up a bunch of players who are willing to leave it all on the court on a daily basis, who will hustle, be physical, and are consummate pros, and then let the chips fall where they may.
