TRADE: Dinwiddie + Bertans to DAL | KP + 2nd to WAS

Also it´s a little disingenuous to not mention the undrafted players of the 2015 class, which included Christian Wood, Juan Toscano-Anderson and TJ McConnell. Furthermore it would certainly have been possible with the investment of maybe one future 2nd round pick + cash to move up to pick #40 Josh Richardson, #41 Pat Connaughton, #46 Norman Powell.

But we have been over this a million times. You make bad small decisions, you make bad big decisions. The size of the pot, doesn´t matter.


That's a fair critique. The Mavs have never been good at drafting. I just think when you get to the last 10 picks of the draft, the amount of variance there makes it almost unrealistic to expect continued success. 

But to your point undrafted players have been a strong suit for the Mavs. DFS, Maxi, Barea, and many others have succeeded here. So I'll give them credit there. 

At the end of the day, the objective is to get the best talent, and the last 10 picks historically has never been the place to do it. Now from 31-45 that's a different story.
