He is never going to be a 30 mpg guy, he probably doesn't even have the stamina to last more than 15 mpg so off the bench is probably the way to go. I would love Maxi in the starting lineup. My lineup is: Luka, Wright, DFS, KP, Maxi - lots of length and defense. Once Wright gets more comfortable with his role in the offense (KP as well) you will get a lot of easy buckets. DFS and Maxi are streaky shooters, altho they are getting wide open shots so I would argue that makes them more reliable. I don't think we are totally dependent on 3s with those two knowing that we will get easy buckets and transition buckets from defense.

At best Luka starts off the ball in order to get Jacked Jalen going. Keeps Luka fresh and Jalen's psyche in check. Sometimes it's about the best overall setup of the team and not maximizing one player.

Better to put Curry or Brunson in the starting spot IMO. RC will probably continue to change the starting lineup depending on matchups and the teams needs. With Wright prefering to come of the bench the Mavs need another ballhandling guard in the starting five. In this case I prefer Curry over Brunson because he gives Luka even better spacing to work with. Curry obviously isn´t the most physical player and a guy like DFS seems to be a good fit next to him. Start Curry/DFS Bench Wright/Brunson I actually really like the Wright/Brunson duo. Reminds me of a younger version of the good old Barea/Harris duo that dominated opposing 2nd units. For what it´s worth Wright/Brunson is currently the best two-man combination. Obviously still a small sample size but in the 68 minutes both shared the floor the Mavs are outscoring opponents by 24 points.

I don't care if Wright would prefer to come off the bench. I think Luka and Wright could figure it out, especially if Rick makes sure that Wright gets to bring the ball up and initiate offense some (which could actually help Luka). BUT!! Curry might be better with Luka and Wright might be better with Brunson. Curry can handle the ball but doesn't have to in order to be productive. A Luka/Curry ball handling ratio could be something like 80/20 or 90/10 and I think Curry would be fine with that. I could see Brunson and Wright sharing ball handling at more of a 50/50 split which would hopefully allow each of them to feel involved and get into a groove.

It’s not the most important thing. It’s the only thing. The new era is upon us. I just hope it gets a better name than "Luka Magic."

What he does they call Luka magic. They don't call him that and I agree neither that not matador is great. I actually like Luka 'razzmatazz' Doncic?. Wonderboy is obviously outdated. Neo could work as he manipulates the game like Neo the matrix.

I "fear" good shooting teams more than good defensive teams. The Mavs offense can overcome most any defensive effort imo. It is the hot bombs away teams that annoy me and are the any given night danger.

Its game day! Hopefully we see a bit more Justin Jackson tonight. Not sure who he'd take minutes from, maybe THJ, but he hasn't been that bad in the time he's on the court.
