KP needs to play isolated much in the same way KD plays on the perimeter. The issue is, the space KP wants to occupy is already occupied by Luka.
- He is below average posting up
- He is below average scoring in the paint with limited post counters
The Mavs need to pair Luka with a True Big man that can set screens and score inside. Prime Demarcus Cousins would be the best type of big to pair with Luka.
Again these are my two cents but Donnie completely misfired for thinking that KP being a 7 foot European white guy was a Dirk clone. He is completely opposite to everything Dirk was with the exception of shooting from the outside with Dirk being vastly better.
I have the same goggles you have. Dirk, without a massive ego and the ability to play with anyone, would have been perfect to pair with Luka. KP...isn't. Prime Cousins would have certainly been worth a shot.
