I think you're both wrong.
Lively is fantastic NOW!
He'll get better, sure, and it's not lost on me that the reason he looks so great this year is just that he fits Luka and this team like a dream, but we can't hold good fit against him, why would we?
Honestly, other than the specific year of Tyson Chandler we saw in 2011, just that one season, have any of us seen a better season of center play for the Mavericks? I guess some of the old timers might go back to the Moody Madness days with ideas here, but I didn't really experience that era. Lively is fitting better than Dampier (who I defended) ever did, that's for sure, and while Diop had his moments, I don't think he was this impactful.
