I think I'd rather commit four years to the younger guys than even two years to the older guys. But, to Kamm's point, would you rather keep Powell/WCS as your C's and sign Fournier or Monk as a sixth man? Or, would you rather go with Holmes/Powell as your C's and go with Green and some guy for the rMLE to back up the 2/3 spot?

To me Holmes is more of a board fascination than a realistic MBT target. The guys I am looking at are Dinwiddie and Dragic. I don't know that either of those guys require a long-term commitment either. Looking at how J Rich pouts here lately makes me think he's not coming back in any capacity tho a trade possibility is feasible.
If Mavs can't get a ballhandler then I think they would spend their money on another shooter before they would spend more money on bigs honestly. That would be guys like McDermott. There's also the trade market we've discussed - like how hard would it to get Terrance Ross? There may be a couple veteran guys like that the Mavs could look at.
