Continue the DFW draft streak...

If you look at the recent drafts of the Cowboys (Felix Jones, Mike Jenkins) and the Rangers (Justin Smoak), both teams ended up with some players that most didn't think would still be there.  Hopefully the Mavericks continue this hot streak that DFW teams have had in the draft. 

Best cause scenario would be to trade up into the top of the 1st round and make a big splash, with a good chance of getting into the bottom of the 1st as an alternative.  Whatever happens, I just hope, hope, hope that we don't stay pat at #51.  The team needs the good PR of a big time move. (I'm not counting the Kidd trade...)

Best case scenario

DeAndre Jordan slides like mad and the Mavs nab him.

Ditto

I was thinking I’d be all about Jordan to the Mavs, take over for Dampier eventually and be way more athletic. I like his upside and that’s the best we could hope for in this draft…

What does DFW stand for?

The talent that is Josh Hamilton.

Dallas-Fort Worth

also I am disappointed you weren’t with us on draft night to share our anger through out the night… HA!

It's hard to be angry picking this guy.

The actual pick of Foster doesn’t bother me, because that would be like criticizing a 7th round pick in the NFL. I’m angry that we didn’t buy any first round picks. Why didn’t Cuban buy 2 or 3 first rounders?

The talent that is Josh Hamilton.
