However, the Mavs don't make it to the Finals without JJB - who was definitely a third guy who could create his own shot. Kidd could do it to some extent as well.
Dude, you didn't let anyone else guess.
2011 creators: JKidd, JJB, and the gravity of Dirk
2024 creators: Luka, Kyrie, Exum, the short roll pass
2011 scorers: Dirk, Terry, everyone else
2024 scorers: Luka, Kyrie, the center position, everyone else
The board likes to compare the Mavs to the ideal. I get that. Neither the 2011 nor 2024 Mavs really fit the ideal. I haven't done a deep dive into this next thing, but I wonder how often NBA champs in general fit the ideal.
Not very astute ^^^^
