The player I'd really like to see the Mavs chase, however, would be Batum. I suspect the Clipps can be outbid at the MLE or even smaller. Their payroll is a disaster and they can't offer him more than room MLE, and they might not even spend that MLE because they're so buried in tax, so he's probably available. He feels like the veteran who would commit to a contender wanting to be able to get a ring. And if you can get him locked up for several years at something like $15-20M total, that seems like a really good investment to me.

I actually really like Batum as a sneaky pickup. Especially if its on the cheap.

If we're thinking about wing scorers that are past their prime and can defend, why not give Rudy Gay a look?
