You also talk a lot of sh*t about Nico for somebody that tries to bury the Mavs with more old and injured people like Lonzo and CP3. All that will do for the Mavs is add more useless and crappy salary from a high lottery pick in 2025 or is it an excellent asset. I´m so confused.
If I'm getting this, what is being talked about is the guaranteed money due the 1st round picks. With the assumption that, this year, those picks later in the 1st round aren't worthy of guaranteed money and guaranteed roster spots. Saying the farther down in the draft, the less worthy. Right now, OKC has two draft picks in that category. Should the Mavs relieve OKC of those picks and give OKC one pick in a later draft when that pick is more desirable, the Mavs would be assuming OKC's burden. 2 less desirables for 1 Maybe, later.
The question is, is this draft, farther down, REALLY that bad, or is that just opinion. We know from past experience UDFAs can be NBA players. What the Mavs need is a REALLY good talent evaluator.
