I think if its clear that Butler will miss the season or cant make it back for sure until april the Mavs HAVE to look for trades. It sucks for Butler who became a great teamplayer but our window is just too short to wait for him.
In that case our "luck" would be that Charlotte (Jax, Wallace) and Philly (Iggy) didnt pull any trigger yet. I think we have nice chances to trade for Jax if we really want it. Jordan called the team out allready (even including Wallace), Jax has 2/20 after this season left and i think not many teams want it. Take a semi bad contract (Najera/Livingston) and we have Jax. With a bad contract like Diaw or Diop maybe even Wallace.
It sucks to talk straight potential trades but we have to fill this hole.
