One would think that Dallas would have some kind of advantage when it comes to players from the area or even the state but that´s not the case.

Well, I think they might have better luck attracting local guys NOW than they did back in the day. Bosh has said many times that the Mavs were so bad when he was growing up in Dallas it wasn't "cool" to follow them. But, there's no shortage of current young players saying they like Dirk and those teams, so I think maybe the current local guys might be easier targets?
