At some point the team just doesn't have enough high-priced players that are worth trading in that scenario.

I doubt that very much... just adding a relatively low-cost (one year deal) veteran who has hit tons of huge postseason shots in his career. He's worth the risk if all you're trading is Alonzo Gee and a couple of second-round picks.

Only in the sense that we're a division rival and that the Mavs are more in the Rockets' league than are the Spurs. I think people here are taking the Morey stuff a little too personally.
