2nd round picks don’t matter

Not to mention all the UDFA’s and two-way guys on Miami
We must find the quality players on the cheap. And just look at the latest move of Denver. All the smart teams will be building through the draft and with other cheap players once they get their max slots filled. No excuse for the Mavs to not start doing this
Meh. You're using the will be champions to denounce rules of thumb. That's like denouncing CLE, ORL, WAS, CHA, PHX, NOP, SAC, DET, MIN, POR, PHI, OKC, DAL, and UTA (14 franchises) for whiffing on Giannis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KX5jNnDMfxA (There's a reason why they call the movie Dumb and Dumber).
What you can do is analyze the gems that break those rules of thumb and try to figure out what was there that EVERYONE missed.
