I think Mavs were all in on Kemba and he proved pretty valuable to the Celtics. I do think he would have been a good fit for the Mavs, providing that third star and scoring. Defensively he's not amazing but then that's a similar problem to some of these other scorer types we have considered. The whole Horford thing created a window for Kemba to join the Celtics, otherwise I think Kemba would have been a Mav last year which would have helped propel the Mavs to a higher seed and a ticket past the first round. My real favorite was Brogdon but Mavs weren''t ever interested in him for some reason. Kemba was a good pursuit, better than Vuc and better than Gobert given that you can't play Gobert in the playoffs.
