Dan, where do you get your advanced stats?
Everything today has been Basketball Reference. Lineup data is NBA.com. EPM data is Dunks and Threes. BBall-Index for LEBRON metric. Spotrac is the best place for salary and cap data.

Luka/Lively/Williams/Green lineups are killing it:

Thanks. I have a statistical model that I use for Fanduel fantasy, but that's just production of fantasy points from nba.com. I try to forecast player production based upon trending (like a demand planning model). No advanced stats; just my mathematics.
You gave me great resources for my GM geeking out of actual advanced stats.

Outstanding. Now it's up to the coaching staff to add Kyrie back in and make our top 5 elite TOGETHER.

82games.com does some interesting things that others don’t, but they don’t put out data into well into the season.

The one other resource that I think is really good (same quality as EPM and better than LEBRON) is DPM (from DARKO.com).
RE: MAVS NEWS: Kyrie has foot sprain| Maxi exits with foot injury - StrandedOnBeauboisHill - 11-02-2023
Curious how the rotation changes with Maxi out. Probably some Morris over the next few games.

I think Maxi has been playing mostly center. I would rather see what Holmes has.

Did they ever post data for 22-23? They used to be my go-to.

Agreed but he's been used as a center who allows us to play 5 out which is the only reason I guess Morris. Or they use DJJ differently to cover up those moments.
I'm with you though, would like to use the opportunity to get Holmes some burn.

I hope I'm wrong, but I think we're paying Holmes $22million the next 2 years to be a vet min, 15th player on the roster. That was the cost for getting OMax (paying now for an asset that will need some ripening). IMO Holmes will only get complete and absolute garbage minutes. He looked awful in the preseason.

[StatMuse] Dereck Lively tonight: 7 PTS 13 REB (7 OREB) 6 AST 2 STL The first rookie to reach these numbers or better in a game since Steve Francis in 2000.

This kid's game seems to know no ceiling. 6 assists?!?!
RE: MAVS NEWS: Kyrie has foot sprain| Maxi exits with foot injury - KillerLeft - 11-02-2023
Agree with those who expect to see Morris get a chance to fill in for Kleber. I think that’s the entire reason he’s on the roster.
RE: MAVS NEWS: Kyrie has foot sprain| Maxi exits with foot injury - SleepingHero - 11-02-2023
If Morris could shuffle his feet I'd agree. I truly think he's just here as a 2mil salary filler that the other team can waive with no qualms should he be traded.
Mavs need to find a new Maxi. Who is a 4/5 that's around 7ft, can hit 3s, and can guard 2-5?

My quick list of guys that aren't absolutely untouchable:
Lauri
Jabari Smith Jr. (Will Houston give up on him this quickly?)
Bobby Portis
Jonathan Isaac
Short list and all of them have their own issues. Lauri will cost an arm and a leg. Smith Jr. might just suck. Bobby is crazy. Isaac and Kyrie would not mesh at all.

Definitely worth keeping an eye on as the schedule gets tougher. I'm afraid there isn't enough shot creation without Kyrie in the long run, but it would be nice if a bigger defensive-minded lineup were possible.
RE: MAVS NEWS: Kyrie has foot sprain| Maxi exits with foot injury - The Jom - 11-02-2023
Is there anyone else in the nba hitting that fake-and-side-step-one-dribble three that G dub has down to perfection? That seems like the degree of difficulty would be off the charts.

There are dozens of people shooting and hitting that shot. He's probably one of the few who would be considered role players though. Definitely seems like GWilliams has some untapped upside that he wasn't given credit for around here after the signing. I think he's going to continue to improve with more freedom and responsibility now that he's not buried behind Tatum and Brown.
