I think the play for the Mavs is to see how this thing gels, wait, and read the market. Unexpected players come available every season. People were mentioning Okafor and O'Neal in another thread. Maybe they give 80% of what Mozgov does for free? Maybe a difference maker(Rondo) comes available? A useful player gets waived...
I don't think this team will toss 1st rd. picks away for mediocre players(in a trade that is. drafting mediocre players is in play). Shumpert and Mozgov would seem to fit, but does either put this team over the top? Both allow for financial flexibility after this season. Both would likely require surrendering a 1st rd. pick. My money is on waiting. Although Shumpert looks like he's playing great ball right now...
