Seems pretty clear that an off-season of acquisitions specifically around those two is necessary before fully judging whether they work together or not.
Being able to keep their draft pick would certainly help.

Outside of Kyrie going Kyrie off the court- I am confident that jalen brunson and luka worked offensively last season- it could have been even better this season- though that’s a different topic
So now with Irving- who has played with and won a title with lebron James of all people- the fit offensively shouldn’t be such a huge mystery. What’s the missing on court factor here

He just came out and said the trade to the Mavs was for "long term" like 12 seconds ago

I think the Mavs gotta re-sign Powell and Wood to have those salary slots available for trades later down the line.
Normally I would be opposed to spending assets in the form of picks for a center, but with how small and weak the roster is, it's an absolute necessity to find a frontline center. They can't trot out Powell, McGee, Wood, Kleber again next season.

Pretty much everyone “tests” free agency, especially someone at the risk of possibly not getting a full max. But jokes > factsHe just came out and said the trade to the Mavs was for "long term" like 12 seconds ago

The Nets fleeced Dallas.
And this is what they get for jumping into the Lakers trade.

The annual overreaction to FREE AGENT X WILL TEST FREE AGENCY when Free Agent X has to hit free agency to get to their actual max eligibility is never not funny.Pretty much everyone “tests” free agency, especially someone at the risk of possibly not getting a full max. But jokes > facts
Both the Mavericks and Kyrie said this IMMEDIATELY when the trade got made. It's not a surprise. It's not news. But goof balls gonna goof ball.

Luka and Brunson definitely worked offensively. Team overachieved by getting to the WCF. Losing him for nothing was malpractice.
I don’t think anybody was taking the Mavs seriously prior to the Cryrie trade despite their record, so you have to try to do something to get another all-star caliber player back into the fold. They accomplished that, but the pieces it took to get that player really hampered them defensively.
So they have the top tier talent part accomplished. The hard part. Reshuffling the deck from a role player standpoint should be relatively doable. They’ll have to make sure they re-sign guys to tradable salaries and be willing to move all future picks.
Seems like it should be able to happen. Sucks that this season will end up being a waste, but was probably necessary in the grand scheme to right some of the wrongs the front office previously made.
