Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25)

[SwisherPrice]

THJ's style just isn't good for this team. This offense needs team players and connectors who know how to move the ball around. There's a reason why they played better in the 2022 playoffs without him because they had 3 players who could score AND pass to open up shots for DFS, Bullock, and Kleber. THJ would have limited them with his greenlight to take any shot.

Exum should help in that capacity but probably not enough for them to write off THJ completely. Just imagine if we had someone like Brogdon instead of THJ, that would be perfect
