The dumbasses on here and on other Mavs' sites kept saying 5-out, Dwight, or nada. Enter Dereck Lively as a rookie. Now none of those dumbasses acknowledge how wrong they were. And yet even Lively isn't fully ideal because he can't play defense on perimeter players. Still, he's leagues better than Dwight. And there's a lot of young kids out there who would fit better on this team than Dwight too. Analytics isn't everything, it's very important... but not if you are short sighted, and most importantly, if you can't see the bigger picture of how different pieces fit together.
See...right here ^^^
In addition to this being very incorrect (we have ALL agreed Luka needs a pick and roll big, that's the foundation for most of Powell's support around here, what little there is), why on Earth do you care? You just said "I'm not a Mavs fan." You typed that. What are you getting out of pretending to win fake internet arguments with people who ARE Mavs fans?
Did someone hurt you? What is wrong?
