I think the Rockets offense from last night portends what we're likely to see from the Mavs. Durant and Sengun were basically the "guards," believe it or not. Both above the break, initiating each action. It was weird, but almmmmmmost effective enough to beat the champs. 

The problem (potentially) is that I think Sengun might actually be better in that specific role than AD. Obviously, we know KD is better in a role like that than a rookie. Still, it was interesting to see, and I suppose my mind is a little more open to this newly developing style than it was 24 hours ago.

With Gafford being out, we will probably see a fair amount of AD at the 5.  It will be interesting to compare and contrast.
