The Mavs have never actually said emphatically that they will NOT be pursuing Dragic at all have they? Is there a first-person quote from the front-office other than what Nico said?
I don't think it will happen necessarily, but Nico's quote is rather vague and it may be some kind of messaging rather than a clear statement of interest.
The problem I see that you have Spencer for the creation role you'd want from Dragic. You'd also need to cut someone and from a contract perspective, Frank would be the guy as everyone else would lead to dead money next year. I'd say Frank has been useful. Further, should you have another big man get injured, you'd really need to add someone and figure out a way to make room for them.
