The No. 1 pick is signed for Booker! ESPN suggests that the Mavericks immediately pursue the championship through trade

The Mavericks gave the No. 1 pick, Klay Thompson, PJ Washington, Marshall and Coleb Martin, Booker who got the Suns, and the two first round picks exchanged by the Suns from the Jazz, and 1 first round swap. After completing this deal, the Mavericks can form the starting lineups of Gafford, Davis, Christie, Booker, Irving, and Lively, Hardy and others on the bench. After completing this deal, the Mavericks have the ability to compete for the championship next season. At the same time, the Suns got a rebuilding core Flag, and then continued to send Durant away through the trade to start the reconstruction.

In addition to this idea, the Mavericks can also trade veterans such as Davis, Thompson, and Irving, and start reconstruction with Flag as the core. For example, sending Davis out for Rockets Shepard, Jabbarry Smith and Dillon Brooks, as well as the 2025 No. 10 pick. Then Irving exchanged Dick and Quickley from the Raptors, and then sent Klay Thompson and Shepard, as well as the Rockets' No. 10 pick to the Pelicans for Trey Murphy. The Mavericks can also sign Chris Paul in the free agent market to train the young people on the team. In this way, the Mavericks' starting lineup will become Lively, Smith, Flagg, Murphy and Paul, and the bench will also include Gafford, Washington, Marshall, Dick, Brooks, Coleb Martin, Quickley, etc. After the Rockets get Davis, they can form a double tower with Shin Kyung, and then Ethan enters the starting lineup to form Shin Kyung, Davis, Amen Thompson, Green and Van Vreett. There are also Adams, Ethan, Whitmore and others on the bench. After the Raptors get Irving, they can form the backcourts of Irving, Barrett and Barnes, and then continue to get Antetokounmpo through trades and sign Lopez in the free agent market. The Pelicans need to rebuild, and they get a 10-pick with Shepard.
