Peak mavs would be super maxing Wiggins and somehow losing the next 3 years worth of draft picks.

The shot chart looks ok but for me, shot selection is more about decision making and opportunity cost. That Jazz offense was awesome, and a lot of those shots would have been better spent moving the ball around. I might be wrong: maybe he was the straw that stirs the drink, but if he moves to a worse offense like the Knicks with less space and gravity, and his percentages drop a little bit, he’s Westbrook without the passing.

Forrest on Fire posted:It's very Mavs to start the period publicly hoping for Brunson, then Dragic, then Schroeder, only to settle for Eric Bledsoe This is almost certainly what is going to happen, even though they literally had Brunson and had Dragic ready to sign.

It's not that Donovan has terrible shot selection. It's that he's had a big tendency to play Hero Ball on a team with other good offensive options while at the same time being not LeBron James or prime Kobe Bryant or prime Michael Jordan.

why are the Mavs so obsessed with getting a completely washed dude who shoots 25% from 3 and can't play defense.

Imo what Donovan gives you on o is erased by his d a lot of nights. This will be more obvious now that the Jazz traded their D. R.D. Mangles posted:why are the Mavs so obsessed with getting a completely washed dude who shoots 25% from 3 and can't play defense. They aren’t. They keep not signing him. It is the fanbase and Luka that wants him. Imo this would have been a cheap way to keep their star happy. Dragic probably would have gotten hurt pretty quick though. Everything the Mavs do from now until their next deal should focus on one of two things. Winning a title or keeping Luka happy. Spacebump fucked around with this message at 18:47 on Jul 13, 2022 |

They have like 1.5 people who can actually create anything resembling offense on the roster. If they don't do anything get ready for tons of 4th quarter collapses as "just tire Luka out" becomes an easy W for any team that wants it. Brunson and Dinwiddie made them pay for that but I don't think Dinwiddie is enough by himself. I mean, Dragic doesn't exactly solve this completely either but in theory he gives you another option. Sort of.

Forrest on Fire posted:The French frontcourt of Wembayama/Gobert/Embiid is fun in Olympic play. A shame about their guards. If Embiid wants an MVP award he will need to play Jokic-style point big and the French national team is the perfect place to start. He's not a terrible shooter either, makes great free throws, I'd argue his worst skill isn't his passing but his vision. Vision in the literal sense after his orbital injury and also a figurative tunnel vision, because when you're a seven foot center that can make the and one, why not go downhill?
