Lowry is extremely respected around the league and he might help bring good vets for that MLE or less. He brings toughness and vet leadership.
If Mavs want to contend, picks and non playing rookies are worthless imho. I would basically like to keep our core 7 and add Lowry with DFS being the main minutes loser. Johnson and Powell would form the salary match with Powell being shipped somewhere else if needed.
If I'm going for Lowry now I need a Pax solution , I mean a Rex collusion. I ask them to talk with each other and figure out how much the two of them are willing to sacrifice in the summer for this: Lowry 20, Luka 10, DeRozan 30, Kleber 10, Porzingis 30, DFS 4, Brunson 2, WCS 3. Honestly that should be our plan anyway. Let them collude and agree to come here, then clean out Johnson,THJ, Powell, Burke,Richardson, Iwundu,Green.
