PLAYOFFS ROUND 1: #4 DAL (4-2) vs #5 UTA (2-4) |

[Mavs2021]

I was wanting Stewart that draft.

Fans will always back their own guy, but if we are honest, the Mavs made three outrageously bad picks. If you look at the number and numbers of the players picked from #15 to #36, it was almost impossible to pull off. It was not that difficult to walk away with two of Bey/Maxey/Bane in this draft and our whole future looks completely different. We don´t need to re-sign THJ, and can go for Markkanen/Collins instead. We have more leverage and/or can use Brunson as trade bait for a center, while also reducing the cost of dumping Porzingis. 

People always say these late picks don´t matter. Of course they do. They impact every decision you have to make.
