- We've made our bed with our commitment to Dirk, might as well lay in it

What does next year's roster look like? Call me crazy, but I wouldn't mind bringing most of this team back next year with a key addition of Dwight Howard and yes we will overpay him.

- He gives us a solid center that still defends well and rebounds well.
- He can score 15 ppg without Houston's ballhogs
- His deep post up game should fit well with our 3 point heavy lineup
- Previously had good relationship with Parsons
- Gives us a competitve team for Dirk to finish out his year(s)

I truly have no idea what kind of offer Zaza is going to get, but a DH+Zaza gives us a very solid center for the entire game. Keep Mejri and Lee for backup and going small.

C: Howard / Zaza / Mejri
PF: Dirk / Lee / Powell
SF: Parson / Anderson / Evans
SG: Matthews / Harris
PG: DWill / JJB
- 2 spots left

The FO has already said they have no interest in getting Howard to Dallas.

Would really like the Mavs to target 1 or 2 guys and bring everyone else back

DWill/Barea
Matthews/Harris
Parsons/Simba
Dirk/Lee/Powell
Zaza/Mejri


Target Batum! Maybe a center if the price is right.
I dont think Lee stays however. Think hell look for a contender


My big question is what do we do about Felton? I like him and he has been extremely clutch in some games. He gets to the rim too. Have a feeling there wont be room for him

I could be wrong but I think they actually said they have no interest in offering him a max deal which probably means the same thing.

@JohnnyNBA: "Dwights people reached out to Dallas to see if they would be interested in a max deal this summer. Dallas said no."- I believe this was back in February.
