I think the Mavs are positioning themselves to move 2-3 of these players with picks this summer. They can mix and match a lot of different ways. While they don't have a young star (unless they include Lively) they have good players on good contracts. They won't beat every offer, but they can get involved in a lot of trade discussions.
Looking at Exum and Din's minutes yesterday, they combined for over 40. I think one is resigned this summer. While I prefer Exum, they both have advantages. Regardless, I think the role I want them back next year is a lesser role. A lot of those minutes are taken by the guy they trade for. I am not sure who that player is.
I agree with this almost verbatim.
