I sincerely doubt that Dallas takes Knox at 7 if Young is still on the board.

Yeah, Knox is just an example of NOT Ayton, Doncic, JJJ, or Bamba. Hell, we might take Mikal Bridges who I like, or even Lonnie Walker, but they're not those top 3/4 players.

Also, the Mavs have missed on a lot of draft picks. DSJ failing to us last year at 9 was a gift from God above, and to be honest, I'd rather have Josh Jackson. So drafting up high increases the odds the Mavs don't miss on this crucial pick.

But, yeah who knows. I'll just be super sad when I see Ayton go to Memphis & know the Mavs could of had them if they had been smart about tanking like Memphis has been. Whoever they take at 6, 7, 8 or 9 won't be Ayton or Doncic or JJJ.
