Guys like Turner, OG and (still think he is the main target) Green. However, it takes two to tango and none of those could be available. Keeping the pick is always an option, but it is not so interesting to discuss, so a couple of trade down ideas:
1. New Orleans - #10+McGee for Herb Jones, Kira Lewis and #17. Jones is a great defender, but not a great shooter. If he could improve a bit, he could be exactly what Mavs need. Lewis was a dissapointment, but his contract is a year shorter than McGee and easier to move. Mavs add athleticism and still have a decent pick
2. BKN - #10 and Bertans for DFS, O'Neal and #21. Mavs lose the upside for two solid wings.
I'd target Claxton and one of DFS/O'Neale rather than two wings.
