Dallas Mavericks

Burning Question: What’s the offseason plan? 

Generally, the Dallas Mavericks are one of the most active teams during free agency. Mark Cuban doesn’t like long rebuilds and it’s already been reported that they could, once again, be pushing for some of the bigger names on the free agent market.

Problem is, this team is nowhere near competing. Especially not in the Western Conference.

This team made the mistake of signing Harrison Barnes a few years ago to big money, and he hasn’t exactly blown up.

Are they willing to go down that hole again, or will they be a bit more selected – and smart – with their money this summer?
