I think that finisher might be Ian. If the Mavs think he'll take at least another small step forward, I could see a scenario where the same three centers are back next season, with Ian getting more consistent minutes.
Again, it all comes back to what Cuban is willing to spend. It's hard for me to imagine the Mavs paying Haywood 27Mil to go away, and then paying Ian 5Mil and some other center, what, ~8-9Mil?
Maybe he will, I don't know, but it seems unlikely to me right now.
