I have more emotional connection to the 2 early second rounders that we wasted that year.
This 100%.
Terry played a grand total of 56 minutes for the Mavs over a season. There have been 10-day contract guys that've played more and retired already and we don't care about them.
What a waste of talent. Sad to see the guy's mental imploded and I hope he bounces back and finds something he loves.

Donnie: You have a room 8x15x15, how many basketballs can you fit in the room?
Terry: I hate basketballs.
Donnie: Okay.

Donnie: So I think we might not want to draft Terry.
Cuban: ....but Bill Simmons says he is the next Trae Young. We take him.

hahah...I bet McGee gets a shot.
News from Stein on two former Mav's:
I can't pretend that my foremost focus at the annual Showcase in Vegas is the actual basketball, because I'm obviously here to network with as many league executives, coaches and agents as possible. But one source of on-court action that always hooks me is the emergence of NBA veterans who enter the G League right at Showcase time because they know that the event is so heavily scouted and hope to play their way back into the big leagues. Nine-year NBA veteran guard Trey Burke joined the Stockton Kings (Sacramento's G League affiliate) earlier this month and I've been reporting this week on two more vets (Sterling Brown and David Nwaba) who are trying to play their way back into the league:
This is terrible for Green. And terrible for the team. Sounds like he's going to be out awhile.
Of course it was a Greyson Allen arm lock, of course it was. I’d be willing to bet they even called a foul on Green for getting his arm locked.
Found this comment in his article interesting:
DFS and Bullock, the old archetype, are still valuable NBA players. They're not the players true title contenders are seeking anymore, though. Green, and his on-ball dynamism, is what the elite teams crave. Dallas just doesn't have enough players like Green to completely shift away from this 3 Centric approach.

Lowkey in the top 3 for the dirtiest team in the league.
They dont even win a ring without Giannis sliding his foot under Kyrie.

Dinwiddie has the automatic "Cuban: I won the trade"-contract extension guarantee like Powell and THJ.
