Now do they target a starting 3/4 that can play off PJ and can hit 3s? Do they break that up and bring in 2 guys that fill different needs?
How they use Green+THJ+Hardy this summer along with the 25+31 will be really interesting to me. That and they have to retain DJJ. I think he's played himself out of the TP-MLE but who knows?
DJJ seems to really like it here, but he's played himself up to full MLE status - unless other teams view him as a Dallas system player. Not to mention that if the Mavs trade for a forward, he has to come back in a lesser role. If DJJ is seriously in the Mavs' plans this summer, then Nico is going to have to work some serious cap magic to make it possible.
