Based on his production and level of play in the last two seasons THJ is clearly a starting caliber player. Would argue that most playoff teams had worse players in their starting five. Problem is the fit and his role. THJ was the 2nd or 3rd option last season. He stepped up and provided scoring and 3-point volume that the Mavs desperately needed. Cannot really blame him for some of the off games. He wasn´t supposed to play that role and did better than I ever expected. Whatever the team/coaches asked him to do. He did it. Came of the bench. Started. Played 20 minutes. Played 40 minutes.
Problem: If the Mavs add another playmaker and THJ loses touches/usage his offensive impact won´t be enough to overcome the defensive short comings. Meaning that he would be best used as the 6th man of the bench. I would be happy to have him in that kind of role but not on a contract in the 15m + range.
