I don't think team "pile assets" has the impression that the Mavs should be able to outbid anyone, exactly, but it would be nice if they were at least able to cobble together a real offer if someone great WANTED to come here to play with Luka, because I swear that's going to happen, eventually.
Having said that, they did what they did, so it's time to root for this team and hope for the best. I certainly won't cry about the Mavs missing out on Trae Young, lol.
Missed out on Siakam and OG so I was fine going with a lesser player like PJ
No one else is really sticking out to me as a summer target to use multiple assets on
Maybe we can get Thybulle for next to nothing this summer to help with the perimeter defense
