Some thoughts on Schroder:
1) Where can you find a better two way player (what this team needs desperately) that is potentially available and "gettable", especially at defending the perimeter and "water bug" guards?
2) Is a player allowed to mature and turn over a new leaf? At what point do you allow for the possibility that 27 year old Schroder is a completely different human being that has outgrown his 20 year old self?
3) He meshed INCREDIBLY well with CP3 and his alpha personality. Without Schroder OKC almost certainly doesn't make the playoffs. He was THAT impactful.
4) He plays FEARLESS. He will NOT hesitate down the stretch or in the playoffs. His clutch ratings are just STUPID good (+33.4 in the regular season and +37.8 in the playoffs). He has the killer instinct the Mavs need desperately.
