Winning time is the fourth quarter. Typically good teams not very good don't execute late and good teams do. The last two games Dallas didn't execute and PHX did. PHX has been good late since Paul joined the Suns. Not saying the Mavs are bad but both games felt the same late. PHX would get good shots, make those shots and make life difficult on the Mavs to score.
I am truly flummoxed on the front court running mate needed for KP. They need another player. Maxi will help. Powell will be a nice fourth big energy guy. But I am really confused who this running mate needs to me. Last night makes it even more confusing for me. Do we need a big banger (Nurkic type), Do we need a rim runner/3 pt shooter, or do we need a physical PF who can also guard wings? I have no idea. I think that decision and finding the right player is one of the biggest decisions the front office needs to hit on. If it is a center type, I think those players are easier to find. If it is a PF type, I think it gets a little more tricky. The PF type is really more of a true Unicorn that fits with KP and Luka.
It is amazing how Toxic that Paul contract looked in Houston a few years ago. And now he has been so good for the last year. We will see if he can keep that up for the whole year at his age, but he certainly looks great now. The Mavs are now at a stage where they could really hit on player like that who is currently greatly diminished. Is one out there?
