Year after year, it seems as if all the other teams get it right on draft night. The San Antonio Spurs, Oklahoma City Thunder, Golden State Warriors, Miami Heat, Portland Trail Blazers, Boston Celtics and the short list can go on and on of how these teams have great scouting/developmental departments.
How do they know which player will be an asset on the court? How do they differentiate between potential and realistic productivity in a player? I’m not sure how the Dallas Mavericks do it exactly, but for years it’s been terrible.
Except this year.
I think I’ve figured out a method to the front office madness.
