You say we don't need 3 first round picks for a trade next offseason. That may be true. But we are talking about our only tradable pick in the next 4 years. Do we really want to spend it on a stop gap center that will make us a little better for a year or two?
Luka has 3 more years before his option year. We have some time. I feel like what they did this offseason has way more chance of long term success that will entice him to hang around then going the Cleveland route of spending every asset we have for short term success.
Sorry, it was Scottforthemavs.
That pick being the only tradeable one is true for this season only. There will be plenty of assets available next season. And yes, I think a good center would make this team much better. I don't agree Mavs have much time. Unhappy players demand trades on a very regular basis these days.

I think and hope they will do very well also. That doesn’t mean a thing though. What does mean a thing? Wins, the ultimate stat.
It is also inevitable that some of the guys who were positive in +- will have that stat negative when playing for the Mavs. It is not possible that all players have a positive +-.
