That was never the case with the Mavs especially the way their roster was set up, with Luka or Kyrie throwing lobs to the bigs. The only floor stretching big they had was Maxi, and he became a reluctant shooter. AD is a border-line decent 3 pt shooter, but he doesn't take enough of them. Some good defensive teams can take away the lob threat, such as Boston did last year. Davis is the only consistent scorer they have. I don't trust Lively or Gafford unless they are right at the rim.
