Yeah, I don't regret the pick at all, but I wonder if Rez and Yaxel were neck and neck on the Mavs board, with possibly only projected improvement due to age being the slight edge that pushed him over, rather than Rez being just straight up clear ahead. Hope both go on to have good careers with Rez being better obviously. But just the road we look to be going down in terms of the type of players we seem to be targeting, and the way we look to be constructing the roster, essentially having another less talented version of Coop on the floor who can basically do just about everything on offense and defense to an above average or greater level seems to mesh with that direction really well of just loads of multi faceted, multi skilled and multi positional players.
