I don´t see a Utah trade. Bogdanovic and Beasley are expiring. No way you give up a first for them. They are MLE-level next summer due to age or criminal record. Conley is also way past his best. Markkanen and Sexton maybe, but that would reflect so poorly on the Mavs again to acquire Markkanen for a 1st now, when they could have him for nothing 12 months ago.
I wasn´t aware of the brilliant seasons Musa and Vezenkov had overseas, but that could have been two realistic targets.
At this point it feels that everybody left on the market according to spotrac (Bledsoe, Schroeder, Lamb, E. Payton) will have to settle for the minimum. Now it becomes a matter of selling it to the players. On paper we have a good team AND plenty of opportunity.
