He already looked a lot better on defense in his 2nd season with the Mavs. At least on the ball. If I am not completly wrong he even had a game winning block in the last few seconds of a game. Shooting percentages were improving as well. I wasn´t as high on DSJ but he really screwed himself. It´s not like he wasn´t improving in Dallas. Just couldn´t handle the lesser role next to Luka.
Cannot really explain what happened afterwards. He had some bad luck with injuries but that´s not enough to explain why he declined so badly.
