I think that's a testament of how important it is for the Mavs to get production from the 4. When Maxi is hitting his threes the team is rolling. When he's cold the team struggles. Same goes for THJ and DFS.
Thats why I'm all for Markkanen. For all of his defensive struggles he's shown he can consistently throw the ball in the hoop, and do it under pressure.
