We will have to pony up 16-20m per to get him.
That's simply bad business. Even worse business when we have Porzingis on the roster.
Investing upwards of 50m per year in 2 guys who play the 5 is terrible and results in us trying to shoehorn them into lineups. Might work OK in the RS but come the playoffs those lineups get abused.
With KP on the roster I'm not spending more than 5-7m per on another 5.
The Mavs should make a hard push for Holmes!

With KP, Powell and Maxi, any other big should be vet min, BAE type.
And really, if KP is back to decent form, you don't need Holmes, if he's not, there's no salvaging this situation other than waiting 2 years until he's expiring and make the move then.
Defense wins draft lotteries!

Hernangomez, whichever one is free. I think it’s Willie. He should be cheap and the Mavs have shown an interest before.

I'd largely agree
But I would take a Noel or Ibaka if other options dried up as you essentially give the bench unit an anchor.
Both likely want more than That though and will get MLE type offers from someone

I really like Mo Wagner for the Min/BAE, good size, good shooting, and tougher the the nice guys Mavs have.
