The real problem with Dwight is that THJ is playing so well that he can no longer be in the perpetual dog house. Dwight got a minimal raise after being one of most consistent players the Mavs have had over his previous contract. That minimal raise wasn't going to change his NBA skill set. You still get a guy that cares, gives maximum effort, is a great teammate, is a community service leader and has an elite NBA skill that happens to make the team better when he's on the floor with Luka. He gives you flexibility at the 4/5 for a team that is sorely lacking in that area. I've been slightly down on him this year as his consistency has slipped but there are a lot of you that act like he's a bum on a max contract.
