If this isn't the reason, then they are just adrift as an organization. They lucked into Luka. Next year will be his 4th yr with the Mavs, and if they love their current roster, then Luka will probably love to leave in a couple more years. This is dispiriting to me. :-/

I'm ready for things to change, but they will continue doing what they've been doing for years. Luka will not watch years go by and remain put on a mediocre team imo.

Thats a hot take. Mavs with prime Dirk were always way over the salary cap. Cuban gave Parsons a 3y max deal, gave post Achilles Wes a big deal etc etc. Mavs dont cheap out.

And the "mediocre team" is gunning for HCA, despite being together with the Heat one of the two teams who got screwed by Covid big time.
