DAL OFFSEASON: Trade & FA | Mavs "mostly done...but you never know."

You say that, but then why didn't THJ play like his 40% 3pt new version self over 14 games in the bubble? 

Now again, don't get me wrong, I like THJ. I think he is a valued scorer and he has the ability to get scorching hot. The ultimate heat check. But it's a bit disconcerting seeing THJ already take a step back when it mattered most in the playoffs and everyone thinks that THAT is the outlier and not the efficient shooting he had. 

I agree with you though that Luka's gravity does play into affect here. And that effect would be even more pronounced for a more lethal shooter like Buddy. Again, I'm excited for this upcoming season, but I don't think thinking THJ reverting back to his old self is an unreasonable take, given that it already happened.
