Seems strange to give Phoenix credit for the Paul trade while ignoring the Porzingis trade. I'd say those are roughly comparable in terms of what assets were used (though Dallas had to give 2 first round picks, making any other trades much more difficult) as well as expected quality of talent at the times the trades were made.
Also strange to not acknowledge that Phoenix has had 3 times as many first round picks (and higher, as well) as Dallas
since the Ayton/Luka picks.
So far it looks like Dallas may have missed with the single first round pick they've had since Luka - but when they made the pick, almost everyone here was happy with Green.
At least we know that Dallas41 would have made the same mistake he's criticizing the Mavs for making.

It was him or Bane that I was hoping for.
Finally a wing with some size who can play D.

Yes I know but Green is more agile and athletic able to recover defensively.
Hey look I know it's not a sexy pick and to be fair I watched more of Green than Bey since I live in AZ.
But dude is really good player and I think Mavs fans are going to love his energy and defense. |
