I think part of the fallacy of plan powder redux is writing off the original as "old man Dirk". Sure Dirk was on the tail end of his prime, but he still had a few good years in front him that the MBT completely squandered. Cuban and Donnie are inept at recruiting free agents and Dallas isn't a destination city. And as much as I like Carlisle, there is a lot of negative buzz about paying for him. And as attractive as Luka is, that's putting a little too much stock in players wanting to come play with him especially when you go up against other competent front offices in attractive cities.
That's all to say that if there is opportunity in front of you this off season, you take it (bird in the hand is worth two in the bush), 2021 cap space be damned. If Giannis wants to come here, you can work your roster and cap to make that happen.
