And I keep saying this, though nobody wants to deal with it. I'm really getting skeptical that Cuban is willing to pay the luxury tax. Even if he is willing, it's super clear that he wants to avoid it as long as possible. I think Donnie is having to be MUCH more careful this time around, and while there have been some misses, you can't argue that the team is improving.
As I've been saying since I found this board, I will BURN THE MBT TO THE GROUND if they don't find at least an off the wall double of a move to finish this roster (the first version of it, anyway) by the time Luka signs his extension next summer. I'm just choosing to roll with them (and their fiscally responsible approach) until then. The goal is to have the right flexibility at the right time, and it might not work! But I'm going to let them see it through before I crucify them.
Oh Yeah I 100% agree.
once you go over the cap and start paying the tax it makes things super difficult for roster building. And mavs know they got work to do there.
they are clearly methodically approaching this and not rushing into it.
I think Mark will pay the tax however much when we are legit contenders.
Regardless of the pipe dream scenarios... We need another legit star unless KP takes a big step up with his consistency/health.

Hate to break it to you but Mavs are clearly setting up for 2022 cap space. It can't be more obvious they are going to wait to sign Luka's extension till that FA.
