I think the Pacers deal could be good. With Zubac they could push hard to get to pick 10 and then they are guaranteed to keep their pick so they could pass the Mavs in the standings. If they're pick 10 they can only go down unless they get top 4. Can't believe the Pelicans are still so horrendous, that's a team that has no reason to be that bad and could somehow pass the Mavs, that'd be great too. Milwaukee might stay ahead of the Mavs now that Giannis didn't leave. Mavs being around #5 would be really good imo.
