If we do decide to go away from KP (which would mean getting reasonable value in a trade) guys like Holmes and Theis would make sense in your switch heavy scheme.
In a normal situation I would agree but with KP missing a lot of games and entire stretches without him it is a different situation. Just remember the start of the season. Nine games without KP. Offense was a mess (15th). Defends ranked 4th in the league. Entire team couldn´t make a three but the Mavs finished 5-4 against a tough schedule.
