That only leaves 6 for 3 c-f positions. And then injuries WILL happen somewhere.
The problem you are worried about is that the Mavs on paper have too much talent. I don't think that's a problem. It will sort itself out.
Ultimately, that's why they have coaches, to figure these things out. No biggie imo.
Calling our frontcourt situation "sparse" is a crazy take.
My issue is not that they have too much talent, its that the talent is too spread out. They have too many vets getting paid (and expecting) 25+ minutes a game, and too many kids that need time on the court to develop. Injuries may help to sort some of it out, but the most likely player to miss time outside of Lively is Kyrie (which won't really help with frontcourt minutes).
