If we're to believe the "Burries is maneuvering himself towards Dallas" narrative that's out there, and I'm not saying we should, really, then he and his camp seem to believe there could be teams in that 2nd tier range who want him, right?
I got the impression there are very strong signs that Rich Paul is trying to steer Burries to Dallas. The Mavs FO are being very tight lipped in whatever their plans are, but I don't think you can say the same for Rich. I'm not sure that is a sign that teams above Mavs might take him. Might simply be a sign that Mavs are the earliest he reasonably goes and Rich really likes the situation there for him. I would be surprised if he goes earlier than 9, but not any more surprised than anybody else.
