Been listening to some podcasts, have a few Mavs draft takeaways...

LockedOnMavericks: Apparently after the Kings game, Carlisle said the Mavs were going to try to win "winnable" games, then when asked what that meant, he replied, "ask Mark." In other words, Cuban is basically ordering him to tank... Isaac Harris is projecting the Mavs to finish somewhere in the ballpark of 4-21 over their last 25 games.

The Ringer: They think Marvin Bagley's lack of defense is going to hurt him longterm. Like, in 5 years he's just going to be another Michael Beasley, whereas a player like Mikal Bridges is going to have much more value around the league. For that reason, they think Jaren Jackson Jr would be a better fit for the Mavs (and more specifically, Dennis) than Bagley.
