I personally have resigned my expectations to another 1st round out.
Would be more important to make moves that help to build a core for the future. Don´t think any of the mentioned names moves the needle this season. They typical Mavs move. Would hate to see the typical Mavs move. Solid win now vet on a short contract (maybe expiring) for expirings and picks. Maximize capspace, waste assets and most likely let the vet walk in the summer. That´s basically Donnies go to move.
After 10+ years of failure with the always in win now mode approach it wouldn´t hurt to try something different.
