No! I think Lively will outplay Porzingis.
Lively will give effort, speed, power, range--and surprising skill for a rookie.
Porzingis plays with finess--and does not like to go against all that Lively offers.
PLUS we have Gafford who who will swap out with Lively and will require that Porzingis respond in a different way. Keep him working.
However...Gafford will need help. Somebody with range and skill. This is where Maxie, DJJ, and PJW come in.
Porzingis will not have an easy row to hoe...
Not saying we will either. Just saying that Boston is not going to easily roll over the Mavs.
AND I don't really pay much attention to +/- stats. This mostly depends on rotations and game plans.
