I always used to believe that most franchises, including the Mavs, are just minor league franchises to serve the Celtics or the Lakers.
Now I realize it’s all about having a very good GM at the top. Stack assets, manage the cap, get assets in their first contract, identify who are keepers and swap out others before overpaying for them.
