And all it cost was THJ, Reggie, McGee, Bertans, 1 pick swap and a 2027 first, would that frame your outlook any differently?
No, because that ‘27 has a good chance of being a top 5 pick.
AND, just because of where the Mavs were starting, asset wise.
AND, because they spent a lottery pick on a center. That’s ALREADY a bigger allocation of resources to that position than conventional wisdom is comfortable with.
