It's not that I had the same thoughts, but it's definitely true that drafting a center comes with more concerns than other positions. |
The problem is that stacking up on guards/forwards means that you're essentially emulating what the top tier teams are doing. To compete with GS, you need 4 all star caliber offensive players or at least something close to that. That's where the league is right now, but that doesn't mean it will be that way in 5 years. And the Mavs aren't anywhere close to competing for a ring.
If the Mavs want to try to win next season, then they need a well-balanced team. Definitely still need a center regardless of where the league is right now.
