Lakers get some shooters around Bron. Mavs gain long-term flexibility.

I want no part of WB, but you have to at least consider the financial gain in that scenario. Pretty sure we would have a max spot open next summer depending on who they included.

Of course, the Mavs suck at FA, so there is that.

Three players I never want to see in a Mavs uniform...
Kyrie Irving
James Harden
Michael Westbrook

Trade for any of those 3 and you might as well start fielding offers for Luka.

The free agents available put the Mavs right back to the current situation.

I do not know if he is available, but T.J. McConnell would be a good addition to the Mavs. Pacers are in major rebuilding mode and it seems that a seasoned vet with a three year contract might be expendable. Perhaps if they could also throw in Daniel Theis and get something back like Powell + Josh Green.
