Agree to disagree on the "empty calories" part. He's an injury risk, sure, and that's not likely to improve as he gets older, but...people are on here all day every day screaming for more basketball skill and here's a guy who can floor the ball to great effect, make every pass in the game, score from all three levels, has good length and plays defense way above average. In fact, he'd probably be the Mavs' third best defender, behind DFS and Kleber, imo. The amount of ball handling/playmaking in the rotation would be helped significantly. This is a dude they could actually run an offense through, even more so than Wood.
AND, he's SMART. When in doubt, pick up smart players. That's what I believe, anyway.
