Preseason Game 4: DET vs. DAL

[SleepingHero]

Some late thoughts about this game:

Positive things:

• Josh Green looked incredibly good.
  
• Kyrie Irving is still a very good basketball player.
  
• If DJJ can hit a consistent 3 then the wing depth may be overstated
  
• Dereck Lively looks way more polished then I ever imagined him being and I can see why people were salivating over this kid. I thought he'd be WCS 2.0. He looks like he's got the right stuff. 
  

Negative things:

• The Grant Williams signing so far looks to be a swing and a miss. He's a good player don't get me wrong, but a starter caliber guy...? Thankfully it wasn't a massive overpay
  
• There has been an ongoing trend where now it concerns me that the Mavs look and play better when Luka isn't on the court. It's happened so much that now it's a fact. On how to fix it, I'm not sure. But the ball movement was the best I've seen in over a year from the Mavs and they need to play like that when Luka is on the court.
