DIRK is a beast. He has taken terrible Mavs rosters perennially. This year will be no different especially with Marc Gasol out the season.

I'm just waiting on the Mavs record to balance out and reflect their NET rating.

I think the DAL pick is better used in a trade for established talent than actually being utilized on draft night.

Good point. However, that might be for a trade on draft night!
I have the Mav's as a .500 team by the season's end.  They got off to a hot run in the early part of the season.  However, they have been slowly declining.  Look for a drop. I expect the pick to be between 13-17 range.  Wouldn't it be something if they went lottery and hit the jackpot!

The Mavs would be thrilled.

The Celts just don't have enough roster spots to use all of those picks, so some of them will get traded eventually.

If there's an opportunity to use that pick to good effect at the deadline, instead of being forced to trade it for less on draft day, or reach for a draft-and-stash candidate, then I'd be OK with that.

I'm betting it turns into us getting a nice pick ......part of the Karma return we have for Rondo being such a turd not trying half way  and Mavs thinking they fleeced us . 

Even if it is 15 th pick .....you watch we ll get a pick who ll turn out decent.

I think it's over rated, if anything. Looks like it could be 13-17. The Celtics have 3 guys drafted in the first round who don't get off the bench. 4 if you count Mickey. I can not see the Celtics drafting anyone next year with either Dallas or their own pick that plays anywhere but D-League.
I would happily trade either or both or a decent player who could crack their current rotation.

Now the Brooklyn pick, that's something different.

Even if that happened I wouldn't be terribly disappointed with rolling over that pick.  Zaza is having a career year, Dirk may decline rapidly at any moment, Williams Parsons and Mathhews have stayed healthy all year.  They may not have all that luck next year even getting a high lottery pick this year.
