Probably the smart way to go.  Be opportunistic.  Look for upgrades but Mavs don't have a lot of clear was to upgrade their wing starting spots now.

So,
resign DJJ without giving up one of their prime assets.
Hope PJ can move from a 32/33 three point shooter to a 37/38 shooter in our offense and more familarity
Hope Jaden earns a role and is consistent in that role.  Get him a lot of reps to succeed and fail.
Strong summer from OMax and hope he is ready when he gets the call.  I think we will see him out of the rotation to start the season, but he needs to be ready when he is given the shot.
Fringe upgrades.  It would be great to find another DJJ.  I view 5th guard and a PF who has some scoring ability as my targets.
edit- refill the two way spots.  Dallas should be ultra aggressive in targeting these guys.  They have  a good team and limited draft picks.    I think they will have at least two openings.

If the Mavs’ big move is to bring DJJ back, I’ll be fine with it. He and PJ would both have to improve their shooting, but that is not impossible. Continuity is something this team hasn’t had much of recently, and I think it would help, especially the kind of continuity that comes from having a good team to begin with.

I would love for O-Max to be in the rotation on day one, myself. Not sure he will be, but I am officially boiling over with anticipation for that, and if he can make the kind of impact I hope, that would be a big add right there.
