If there is a solid rumor about acquiring Bruce Brown, it may very well coincide with a Mavericks trade of one or more wings outgoing in a trade - like Thj or Bullock. We don't know what the Mavs are thinking or how they want to shuffle the deck, but if the Mavs acquire a center in a trade, they will likely have to let go of a wing. Hence, we may need a replacement.
This is all about upgrading the roster.
we would have to get rid of at least two wings before acquiring another one would take precedence over a big. Our bigs are either new, or bad. Almost all of our playable roster is 1-3. You CANNOT ignore that. You just can't. That is the position the team is in. If they go into the season without 2 new starter, or at least high playoff rotation bigs, what's the point? Suck again? We have all seen how that plays out... adding a pair of rookies isn't going to fix the issue. Holmes MAY BE part of the solution - but that is greatly unknown.
