The Mavs haven't been able to do that. Not saying they won't. But this past season the Suns succeeded in a very specific way in which the Mavs did not.
The Mavs could attempt to go that route as well. They could try to sign Lowry this off season. Its probably not the way I would go. At the time we traded for KP, if you had asked me would I rather do that or sign an aging point guard the answer would have been easy. Sometimes things work and sometimes they don't. There is a lot of luck involved, and I think sometimes that gets forgotten. It's so much easier to judge decisions in hindsight.
