SO MUCH THIS. This is a deep draft with lots of parity and lots of guys who could be solid role players in the 10-50 range of the draft.

If the Mavs take a guy they love and want to sign him to a a 3-4yr deal I believe they need to use part of the MLE to sign a deal longer then 2 yrs.
Which will cause issues if you are competing for a MLE player and you can only offer them $8mil instead of $9mil.
Would the Mavs be better off trading up to 26th with Boston?
I think what you are saying makes sense, but I am by no means the local cap expert. I was wanting them to just straight buy 26 from BOS and keep 31. But if they don't want three rookies I could see buying 26 and trading 31 for a future late first?
