Put me in the "can't be worse than Burke" camp.  lol

DFS will probably not see the light of day in that team, much less be a part of the starting 5

Denver is loaded. They bounced back in a good way, after losing Grant and Plumlee.

Edit: he is. He averaged 4 points in 22 minutes per game last season. No thanks.

Still if you are looking to improve your long-term roster around Luka it makes a lot more sense to try out younger players like Ferguson or Parker instead of carrying the 30 year old trade accident Melli until the end of the season, when you will not re-sign him anyway. But what´s the point to even think about it. The Mavs have followed the same path for the last decade and they will never change.

What's up with Rivers? I always felt like he got somewhat protected with playing for Daddy at LACs, but he seemed to be a contributor in HOU the last few years. 

Is he a possibility? or will PHL make room for him?

Mavs don't have a roster spot for a buyout right?

Hard to imagine them giving up on Terry for a buyout dude.

Either Terry or Melli, I guess. Although Burke's been a bit of disappointment this season.

Melli, WCS and Boban are expiring. If they go for a buyout guy it will be one of them and I think it is pretty much obvious which one

Fare thee Melli.

I guess the question comes down to is the buyout guy that much better than Melli? 

I know he's having a down year but I like Melli a lot.

I'm not sure the Mavs are linked to anyone at this point so I think Melli is safe for now.

This makes me sad but Mavs need to work on trying to make Powell look like an NBA player so they can dump him this offseason. If he gets DNP-ed for Dieng every night that wouldn't help.

Nice start from Fournier for the Celtics. I wish Mavs would have traded for him
