I really do think that a more traditional PG would be a good fit next to Brunson.

Keep in mind what Brunson is being asked to do. His role is to come in and change the game, bring energy, push the pace. When he's paired with Luka, Luka is the point guard. It should be considered a valuable skill that JJB can work off the ball. That's exactly what the Mavs need and not every player can do it, for example, DSJ. 

I don't have any doubt that Brunson could fill a more traditional PG role if needed. But what the Mavs need is a dynamic scoring guard who can play off Luka. Brunson is looking more and more like the next JJB to me.

On the topic of JRich for Lonzo ... Lonzo is bigger, younger, better passer, better shooter, better rebounder, more versatile defender. Ball would be a fantastic upgrade to JRich I just don't know how you'd get him from the Pels.
