Trade Analysis

Dallas finished slightly ahead once the assets played out. The protected first-round pick ultimately became Travis Mays, who gave Dallas two productive seasons. Bill Garnett and Terence Stansbury did not create a clearly better long-term return. The central comparison is first-round pick (protected top 7 in 1990, unprotected in 1991) (1990-#14-Travis Mays) against Bill Garnett, with the remaining picks, rights, cash and contract consequences shaping the final margin.
