Honestly, the Mavs feel like they're on cruise control until Dirk is no longer the best player on the roster (either because they find another superstar, his game falls off a cliff, or he retires...)

I feel like they are maybe one trade and a couple of good free agents/drafts from being good again.

Unfortunately, as you said, the only guys we can really afford are those guys that put teams over the top or solidify solid teams. Those guys aren't bad, but we have limited assets.
