Dwain Price of the Star Telegram writes that Dallas is already thinking of ways it can improve its interior defense this offseason, after this weakness was badly exposed by the Sacramento Kings.

Mark Cuban will have discussions with agent Bill Duffy about possibly acquiring LA Clippers center Michael Olowakandi.  Olowakandi is a restricted free agent, but there has been tension between him and the Clippers, so it may be possible to acquire him somehow.

Also, Wang Zhizhi will become a restricted free agent this offseason, which may spell complications for the Mavericks.  Wang's next contract will be signed under new Chinese legislation that will require him to give half his income to the Chinese government.  Given how complicated the last negotiation for Wang was, the Mavs expect the next to be difficult as well.
