He is finally setting some good screens. No one on this team sets screens. KP sets horrible screens and shies away from contact. Powell tries but causes a ton of turnover on moving screens. DFS just doesn't do it enough. Marjanovich is too slow to set a good screen. Kleiber is ok at it but does not roll well. Melli also has a full offensive repertoire, he can drive, post up and can hit a jumper, though his 3 point shooting sucks this year. Dallas desperately needs a good screener who can roll or shoot on a pick and roll, that's why they are so interested in Collins.So much of defense is effort. Could he have landed in a better place than here with Luka? He’s playing like he wants to stay. We need guys like that to absorb hard contact to keep KP/Maxi fresh for the playoffs
