KL, btw I would assume Kai (if signed) is on a 2 year minimum or a 1+1 TO, or something giving Mavs 2 years of control for doing the deal. At the minimum, why not.get longer control, to better reward the effort?
I also think a 3rd-S C is a job the Mavs will continue to fill, for multiple reasons including developing for future needs. I do not include players who position-flex in the roster allocation numbers, even though they obviously impact distribution of minutes. (If such a player gets injured, and you have him listed in 2 positions, it creates 2 holes to fill by the injury to only one player. That's an instant crisis. So imo better to fully stock each position.)
