I agree that we might not need a third star (altho it'd be nice). It might be better to have a good supporting cast that doesn't lock you into one giant contract. If you put all your money into a third guy its possible that doesn't get you over the hump. You would need a bona fide all-star to remove all risk.
I am a little bit concerned that we make the same mistake every team makes with Tim Hardaway which is giving him an extension. His contract actually now looks really good as-is. He's arguably the third best player on a 1 yr deal at sub-20 money. Mavs are too quick to fall in love with their own players and say Tim actually here's a 3 year extension. Mavs might be able to trade him or resign him later after they have a larger sample size in terms of his fit here. He has looked amazing on offense and better than expected on defense. All that being said I don't want to give him 60 mil just for a partial great season.
