That’s why it is so difficult to project. I am also going by the feeling that Wagler and Acuff will be gone. I have a sinking feeling the Mavs are going to slip in the draft. Given all that, Phillon or Ament would still be a win imo.
Not saying that you cannot hit the jackpot with upside gambles like this but more often than not it doesn't work out. With this most likely being the last good pick the Mavs will have in the next few years I don't think a gamble like Ament is the way to go. If some of the better guard prospects are gone (we all probably have them in a different order) I would rather trade down and pick a more NBA ready prospect with a lower ceiling.
