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

[Jason Terry]

Nevertheless he plays a position of need and we also cannot forget that just like Burke he already knows the system. Teams basically have no time to prepare. The season starts in one month.

This. Burke and WCS already being familiar with Dallas is HUGE, imo. Continuity is often overlooked in general, but is more important this season than every. 

The Mavs are not contenders, but they addressed several needs aggressively, and have gotten younger, longer, more athletic and much, much deeper. If even halve of these guys work out, they'll be one of the more long, athletic teams in the NBA. When have you ever been able to say that about our Mavericks?

Yep. Lack of summer league and long camp gives more value to guys already familiar with our system
