You can go a really, really, really long way with just that. We don't have to make a desperation Russel Westbrook or Jrue Holliday trade.
That was a decade ago, different times in the NBA atm.
Only team to do something close to that was Raptors, and even then you could argue that Siakam and Lowry are actually stars.

Clippers went all in for George and it didn't work. Utah paid kings ransom for Conley and it wasn't enough. Only one can win each year. So you should prepare yourself that next Mavs move to bring this roster to serious contention status will be either an overpaid player or they will pay a kings ransom, because organic growth has its limitations.
Mavs has already paid kings ransom twice to get Luka and KP.
They need to reload their assets to be able to do that again.
