So, maybe the Mavs can get creative and find away to reduce the role of the big men and make this series mostly about wings and point guards, where they have a fighting chance. Ayton doesn’t seem easy to play off the floor. But McGee, maybe?
Ayton cant cover Maxi on defense at the 3. Maxi can cover Ayton when we play defense and give him plenty of trouble.
To me that sounds like we have the upper hand in this matchup.
Maxi is key to this series, as his skills translate to counter Ayton. More than Powell. Although pick and roll with Luka and Powell will be hard for Ayton as well.
