Not too high. You need a true star to stand out. MPJ is probably the man here, I don't think that's enough.

They get schooled in the playoffs.

I personally go big with Carter, Jackson, and Porter but then I'm pretty old school.

Would adding a prime dad make the team a contender? Tim Hardaway or Scotty Pippen? They should be the deepest team by far..

That's Curry II and Payton II, not Jr...
How can I forget PJ Washington Jr. deserving a starting job similar Aaron Gordon next to Michael Porter Jr.

Mavs actually from time to time have a line up of Jr./II plus either Luka or Kyrie:

Tim Hardaway Jr. / Derrick Jones Jr. / PJ Washington Jr./ Dereck Lively II
