Perhaps switch 2022 and 2023 pick (sort of what Milwaukee did last season for Tucker). Mavs are so deep in trouble because of three wasted offseasons that they will have to be creative. This team is far from a little tweak away, imho.
Oh I agree with all of this and kind of hinted at the idea of us having more flexibility than people seem to admit in my response to KL.
I think some of the despair comes from the fact that we all acknowledge that we're far from a tweak away simply because of the state of the assets. I do agree that getting rid of protections shouldn't be toooooo hard I would hope but feels like something we may botch as well and I think that adds to the despair at times. I also agree that trading for a 2023 pick would be real nice, it's something I've been saying should be our top priority for a while now. I honestly think we could be using Brunson to get our 2023 back from the Knicks if we wanted and we'd be in a better position big picture wise.

This hasn't happened for us since 2008 with Kidd...that's always been our biggest issue.
