Naji Marshall Signs Extension W/DAL

I think the Mavs need a little more creation, but you make very good points here.

He really didn't.  The Mavs were a very poor passing team last season (they were dead last in passes per game) and only 2 of the top 8 guys in assists (Flagg and Naji) are still on the roster (Max was 9th with 2 assists per game).  Kyrie will help, but he is not a true point guard (he averaged less than 5 assists per game in over 36 minutes before the injury).  After that you have a guy that played 12 minutes a game last year and a 20 year old rookie.  I'm sure it will be better this coming season (it really can't get worse) and I'm curious what kind of impact May can make, but this roster is a long way from being good from a creation perspective.
