I like most of this guy's content, particularly his Celtics videos. It's pretty interesting how serious outside NBA observers view the Mavs, imo.

Some pretty good thoughts there.  I'm with him on the asset pool and trying to land another star level player.  We could probably scrap enough together for that Myles Turner level player, but you might lose enough to counter all the positives he brings and end up in the same place as if you had done nothing.  I think you just need to look for talent swaps for players like THJ that get you near or equal value and fit with how the team wants to play better.  I'd lump KP in that sentiment as well, but you are definitely going to get a downgrade in talent and you'd have to hope more availability is worth that risk.  I also don't like the KP/Turner fit.   

He's also correct on JB and if you take into consideration that we can't land another star, maybe it's time to consider JB the core and invest into him.  The fear is that the upside of the Luka/JB pairing is Dame/CJ but I'm not sure we have a lot of other great options.
