DAL OFFSEASON: Trade & FA | Mavs "mostly done...but you never know."

[Kammrath]

"ATTA" is literally just "run your team well." How is that a plan? It's not.

You say that because you are actually an ATTA guy yourself. 

There are other ways of team building. ATTA is only one way and it hinges mostly on using the trade market to acquire what you need. It isn't "The Process" of tanking for 1-3 picks, it isn't "Plan Powder" of clearing room and trying to wine and dine the best free agents, etc. It is about accumulating assets through free agency and the draft, but realizing that using those assets in trades for the pieces you ultimately need is the key. 

I am team ATTA right NOW because the Mavs have Luka. Without Luka I would probably be inclined to superstar hunt in the draft ("The Process"), but that's just me.
