Assessing Anthony Black's Potential Fit With the Mavs

In this episode the guys talk about a prospect the Mavs' reportedly have eyes for: Anthony Black, a guard from the University of Arkansas. They discuss how his 6' 7" frame combined with his elite on-ball defense and downhill game can help him make a day 1 impact with the Mavericks. They also evaluate some of his offensive weaknesses such as half court creation and shooting, and talk about how the Mavs' player development staff combined with Black's work ethic give reasons for optimism that he can improve. Finally, they debate how important it is for the Mavericks' pick at #10 to be a day 1 starter for the team next season, or if it is satisfactory for that player to grow into a starter over the next few years.
