All of the players in bold are either solid rotation players or players their teams are keeping around because they still like their upside. Heck, even Justin Anderson is on a roster & in a rotation, just not for us.

Portis, Hollis-Jefferson, and Nance Jr are significant players. Portis a potential future star & Nance Jr is borderline approaching that territory. Not to mention, Josh Richardson was selected by the Heat at 40.

I normally don't like to play the "you could of drafted player X here" game because you can do that every time & it's a guessing game, but in this game several more talented players than Justin Anderson was taken after the 21st pick & it's not the only time that happened with the Mavs in recent years.
Neat, you're playin the hindsight game, whereas I was talking about how I felt BEFORE the draft... Two different conversations.
