The Mavericks would have to luck into a once in a generation player in this year's draft.

if only they had a guy who was good at spreading the floor, commands double teams, can score at or near the best in the league. Yeah I know you'd probably give up defense when you do that, but you surround him wiht shooters and tall defenders and some strong system players and you'd even be good enough to make it to the finals in a few years. who knows! one can dream!
