I know people will say that the Mavs are using the Early Bird exception, and it doesn't really hurt their cap flexibility. Which is true... but only for this season. Next season the Mavs still have Part II of their big free agent spending spree. Dirk, Marion, and Vince are coming off the books.

All the exceptions the Mavs are using now will eat into their available cap room next summer. I'm not against re-signing Brandan Wright with the Bird Exception... but I wish his contract was closer to the rumored $4M salary. A smaller contract would've made him a better trade asset.

Man, you whine about everything. James is 6'7" without shoes. Wright got an extra 1mill.
