Not really. Look at what we lost. The biggest thing we lost is defense and 3 point shooting (from Maxi at least).
Neither Hunt nor Jones are great defenders, and it was pointed out earlier that Pinson is actually shooting a better 3 point % in the G League than both Hunt and Jones, in addition to being a better defender. We all know why they got Chriss as well...Hunt may only 1 inch shorter, but he can't play center at only 190 lbs.
If these guys have to play, we also don't want both of them having to get used to the NBA.
To be honest, while I listen to Mavs Moneyball and like it a lot, let's be real. They never miss an opportunity to crap on the Mavs players, front office or Cuban. They are right at times, so I don't want to discredit them, but they fall that way in my opinion. They do a lot of analytics work, but they seem to get their energy by criticism and complaining. There's a place for that.
