BTW, that Kennard deal is the floor for THJ and JRich.

I am not sure about THJ. Kennard is younger, same shooter and better facilitator. They both suck defensively. Assuming Kennard is healthy, THJ deal for same money would look worse. But of course, there will be competition for THJ. Since we will be over the cap, I don't really care, how much they pay him. 

The path to improvement will be some kind of Johnson Plus deal and bring back THJ and JRich (unless THJ is the Plus...which I doubt).

Agree. Unless something totally unexpected comes up, this is it. Other than that, I think Mavs will be looking for a two way player, someone who can defend but is better offensively than DFS. He must be a decent 3 point shooter. 6th man type like Fournier is alternative. Here are possible options:
- Oladipo (Luka would play PF on defense against teams that don't sport big PF) - I think Mavs will go hard after him, if he looks halfway decent
- Norman Powell
- OPJ

Not a long list
