Agree with everything except the idea that the Mavs are willing to go into the season with Green as the starting 3. I will continue to doubt that until it happens, and I'm not sure them stopping right where things are would even make that seem likely. 

If it's to be Harris, I will definitely hope for him to come off the bench, as you suggest. That's an area where he might do some good. But, I'd prefer Marshall or Grimes in the starting lineup (because those are now the two best ball-handler defenders).

Totally agree. I don't think they would go into the season with Green starting at the 3. I would guess that Marshall would start unless they had Klay. I have a good feeling that Green is going to get flipped for Klay. If for some reason Klay goes elsewhere I wouldn't be surprised to see the Mavs check on Jerami Grant again. If he's not available for the assets I think they would likely wait until training camp to see what they have.

I feel like Grimes is going to be a gem. I was very interested in Naji and mentioned him the day after the finals ended. He is a DAWG. Very good defender and has a good floater. Also, he's a fairly good corner 3 guy. I heard that Grimes is an elite corner 3 shooter. And he can routinely guard the other teams best player.
