And that's not absolving him for picking up those fouls. Dorian is easily one of the three best players on the team and that's a problem. He needs to be your fourth of fifth best starter.In other words, he needs to be Angel Prince!!!

I think DFS is generally one of the Mavs three most important players in how they play (and I think Luka makes DFS look much better than he is, he amplifies him)...though the Mavs actually got along just fine without him in the game last night.
I guess agree to disagree. Din is a better offensive player than DFS, but Dorian more than makes up for it with his defense. I also think for all the complaining about KP availability, Dorians availability, including the ability to play very high minute loads, tends to be overlooked.
