I'll say it again, I'm underwhelmed by the thought of Burries being the Mavs pick at 9. If he's better than Christie, I'd be surprised. Burries was not the best PG on his Arizona team. If the Mavs have to have a PG, draft best the PG, not the 2nd best PG who played for Arizona.
Burries was the best SG on his team, and the best shooter on the team. I don't care about him being our PG of the future.
And having him better than Christi is a pretty low bar for me. Christi was a good 2nd round pick... certainly not a lottery pick, and is certainly replaceable in the Mavs rotation in my opinion.
I posted this Burries article yesterday... From a draft analyst at NoCeilings.
