Mavs duck under the tax line this year, avoid being a 2nd apron team next season when extensions for Pj & Gafford kick in, and gain future payroll flexibility by attaching 3 unwanted contracts (Hardy/Russell/Exum) to Klay and Marshall while adding two 2nd round picks.

Starters (if/when healthy): Irving/Christie/Flagg/Davis/Lively

Rotation: Williams/LeVert/Martin/Washington/Gafford

Depth: Sasser/Lanier/Klintman/Jones/Powell

Pistons beef up their second string and add some much needed shooting/scoring with Klay and Marshal while adding veteran depth with Hardy and Russell. Exum will be cut so the Piston can convert Dannis Jenkins from a two way to a standard NBA contract.

Starters: Cade/Robinson/A Thompson/Harris/Duren

Rotation: Ivey/K Thompson/Holland/Marshall/Green/Stewart

Depth: Jenkins/Russell/Hardy/Reed
