I think that is a good wrap-up. I think it remains clear Mavs need to upgrade the roster. Main goal in the KP trade was increased flexibility and now it is on Mavs to prove they knew what they were doing by what seemed like a very forced trade.

He has otherworldly basketball gifts but it feels like you might need to thread the needle to build the right type of team around him which is going to be really challenging for Mavs who have problems attracting any talent.
I think we should at least see what Luka and team look like with another top 30 talent on the team before making judgements how difficult is to build around him. Brunson is arguably a guy who came closest to that.
