The team’s reported goal this summer is to re-sign Tim Hardaway Jr. while wooing Kyle Lowry. If Lowry opted for Miami, it probably makes Goran Dragic available as a fallback option and a secondary shot creator they desperately need. I think that would be a tidy, effective summer if they could get both done. Do you see it as a plausible scenario?
Hollinger: From everything I’ve been told, they are going to pursue Kawhi Leonard and then, once the door is slammed in their face, pivot to a hard pursuit of Lowry. I think he makes sense for them as a target because he couldn’t possibly fit better, and the worry about his age isn’t as strong for me because the Mavs plus Lowry are plausibly good enough to contend … especially in a West with no obvious front-runner.
