That's a good take in the time machine. And it's true.
However, I think Brunson has really picked up on how effective that rocking motion actually is on aggressive defenders. He probably got it from Luca, but we'll never know for sure.
Here's the thing though. The Mavericks have two of the best guards in the league at penetration in the paint and efficiency. I don't see a lot of these rocking moves from all that many guards, and we have two of them who do that very well. It's probably not just coincidence that they have the same dance moves when they get in the paint.
