The approach you described above I think is the likely (and non-creative - typical post-2011 Mavs) path towards adjusting the roster in free agency. I think they’ll lose out on Lowry (New Orleans), Conley (Utah), and Holmes (Charlotte) because they’ll be outbid. I think Hardaway will be pricier than $18M and they’ll be settling for a couple of mid-tier guys like Dragic and Noel or O. Porter.
If they could find a way to offload KP in a cost-cutting way, they wouldn't get outbid.
I need my banghead smiley.
