The joke of the offseason isn't that the Mavs missed out on Conley/Whiteside or even Parsons. The joke is that they really had no other plan and somehow don't expect to rebuild. This is the first offseason, ever after missing out summer after summer, that I actually believe the FO doesn't know what they are doing.

And thats a pretty big joke in and of itself. Fisher says they knew the odds were low and they still went with it without a backup plan.

There really was nothing else to do. They were done with Parsons, and don't like Howard. Thier plans haven't changed since 2011. Matthews was signed only as part of the DAJ fishing attempt. Parsons himself was a big fish gamble when he was signed. It's always been big fish or else. At least they drafted Anderson.

Just read Evan Turner will get a four year $75M deal (Portland).

Evan Fournier will sign an extension giving him 5 years and $85M (stays with Magic).

There's plenty else. But you said it best. Always been big fish or else. That's Cubans problem. Dallas isn't a destination for big fish. You can't keep going for the hottest girl in the room. We do have to overpay that's the reality of the situation. Or we end up with wasting the last 5 years of our only superstar.
