So far the Mavs added Harrison Barnes (4ys/$95m), Seth Curry (2yrs/$6m), re-signed Dwight Powell (4yrs/$37m), Dirk (2yrs/$40m), Deron Williams (1yr/$10m) and acquired Andrew Bogut in a trade (for a 2nd rd pick, I think). They also signed 2nd rd pick AJ Hammons to a multi-year deal. They missed out on Whiteside, lost Parsons to the Grizzlies and Pachulia to the dread pirate Warriors, and I doubt they'll bring back Felton, Villanueva or David Lee. But they've got more moves to make, they'll be better than you think just like always.
So they look something like: PG Williams, SG Matthews, SF Barnes, PF Dirk, C Bogut with Harris, Barrea, Anderson, Curry, Evans, Powell, Hammons, McGee off the bench. I dunno, man, that does not look like a playoff team to me. They've still got moves to make (Dion Waiters, Luis Scola, Kevin Martin--come on down! Maybe Gerald Green as this year's reclamation project?) and perhaps enough West teams will tank next year for the Mavs to hang around. The Mavs are always competitive and they'll have money to spend, so they'll be trying to win games while everyone else is tanking.
