2020-2021 ROSTER TALK: Archived

I don't disagree he has flaws but I still think he fits the "playmaker" role Mavs need in some capacity. If I were a betting man I would put Dragic as more likely. Dragic obv is buds with Luka, toolsy offensively and was clutch in the playoffs last year. I also don't think he will cost too much given his age and injury history.

You are being dismissive of "flaws" that are massive, and that make him completely undesirable on this roster.

1 He is an AWFUL defender. Simply horrendous. The various ratings all say he's a definite negative, and the eye test (reputation) does the same.

2 He cannot shoot. AT ALL. In 2019-20 (since he missed almost the entirety of this season), 41% from the field overall, 29% on 3s, corner 3s 13%. Beyond 3 feet? Everywhere was 35% or less. The guy just can't shoot, and the only reason he put up numbers is because he was playing on a mediocre team and made himself a "volume scorer" - usage almost 30%.

He did have good assist numbers, but that's the inevitable consequence of having the ball ALL THE TIME. Will the Mavs be taking the ball out of Luka's hands? No. So ...

We would HATE him with his constant bricks and no defense.

I can't imagine the Mavs will have even the slightest interest, because he doesn't bring anything they need on either end of the floor.
