I don't get the small high priced bench guard trade thoughts. That is Hardy next year. It is his year to sink or swim. I would strongly consider being proactive and sign him to an extension. He is an NBA player. Could be a good one if he continues to fine tune his game. Not a certainty. Give him some security and get a discount by signing him early.
Mavs need to be on a look out for 2-3 things. Another PF (maxi replacement) and probably a starting level wing. If Omax is a player, you may only need one of the prior. And they need a 4th/5th guard who can run an offense. The fourth guard is probably a minimum guy. The Maxi replacement and starting wing could be one player, but that is a real tough player to find. Mavs need to keep their assets and find this player. It probably won't be this year. If not, I would look for an older veteran who can score a little from the wing to be a stop gap.
