The 2019 Offseason could be the watershed moment if the Mavs FO can't improve the roster construction significantly this offseason.
Mavs life would be much easier if we were living in the timeline where they didn't allow themselves to be the annual FA losers and instead went after and secured Malcolm Brogdon. In that timeline the Mavs also aren't playing for 2021 cap space and add any one of the numerous quality MLE guys in 2020.
That Mavs timeline where they aren't worried about capspace to stupidly chase RFAs and wind up with dollar store leftovers (see Wright, Delon) in the 2021 offseason and so they are more aggressive at the 2021 deadline and pickup Aaron Gordon.
KP - Gordon - 2020 MLE (J. Crowder) - Brogdon - Luka
2020 BAE (D. Howard) - Kleber - DFS - THJ - Brunson
