One example is right out of the Clips timeout, after an offensive rebound Maxi just gives up and concedes a wide open PG 3 cause he ran into open space instead of sticking with his man. Offensively he's been unplayable. Can't make a wide open set 3. Can't catch a pass. Throwing away easy hand offs.
He hasn't been our worst guy by far today. That goes to Gafford, Timmy, and DJJ.
Couldn't disagree more. Lively has been the worst big. Followed by Gafford. With Kleber the Mavs can at least contain the initial pick and roll. Sadly Kidd is too stubborn to give PJ/Kleber extended minutes this early in the series.
