Mavs brass need to decide whether they want to go with a 2 big lineup (ie a big that cannot shoot next to KP but does the usual "big" things and has some defensive versatility) or the big wing at PF lineup (Maxi, Batum types) or have both capabilities. As long as Maxi and Powell are on the team you already have both lineup possibilities so its a question of what to add or who to upgrade. For me I don't have a strong feeling other than I know Luka likes a roller which would put me more in the 2nd versatile big lineup. I think Collins checks a bunch of boxes in either lineup style which is why he will be high on the Mavs list. If Collins is a no-go then I like Batum as the number 1 "big wing" option or Noel as the "versatile rim-running big" option with cap space leftover for a big fish.
