The point is that you had to compare the 2 best Mavs pick against a bunch of non-lottery picks to dismiss our office's ability to find stars when they have high enough picks. Mavs didn't do well in the non-lottery draft historically, that's a known fact. But to throw things around like "for every 1 good pick, 15 bad" while using incomparable groups is just bad argument. It would be fine if you were comparing Luka, Dirk, and Devin against Samaki Walker and DSJ for example, but I guess that isn't sensational enough for your narrative.
