Things were quiet in the Mavericks' draft room. Most teams who were willing to talk trade with the Mavericks were eager to pry away either Josh Howard, Devin Harris or Marquis Daniels.
"You have to give to get, and we weren't willing to put those guys out there," Nelson said. "Bottom line is there wasn't a guy outside of the lottery who would help us win a playoff game next season."

That's the most encouraging thing I've heard Donnie say in quite some time.

It really is. I thought the team had lost a lot of hope in Daniels, so its nice to hear that they still believe in him and that he'll be able to produce. I also like that Nelson was talking about winning next season, not waiting for anyone to develop.
