I wasn't really joking. I totally agree you need guys that play excellent defense next to Luka. But Mavs surrounded him with THJ and KP, so that plan was already thrown down the trash. So I don't think you can hope having any kind of decent defense with them. They will be always exposed in playoffs, even if KP returns as best version of himself.
