DFS is -0.3 on/off for the season....-7.5 on defense. He has not been good this year.
As I said in the game chat, DFS is an average NBA bench player who shouldn't get more than 20 mins/game except in an emergency.
I think RC has fallen in love with DFS like he did with the Matrix (post 2011) and plays him heavy minutes even when it isn't helping the team.
I think one of the biggest problems so far is that the Mavs wings suck together:

Basically this is a bad team (bottom 8 team in the NBA in Net Rating) when any combo of THJ, DFS, and JR play together....and when there is only one of them at a time then this is one of the better teams in the league (almost a top 8 team in the NBA).
