In a perfect world, you want one of DFS, Bullock, Maxi being the threat to make an open three late. Dallas had three of them in the game and Jalen got very little touches down the stretch.
As much as we like Maxi, he is a guy you need to upgrade. Very nice player and well worth his $ imo. But he has also shown a tendency to disappear (he has been dinged in some playoff runs so that could be a factor). How do you either pair someone with Maxi or find someone who does what Maxi does but more/better?
You really see how limited we are in the front court when KP is out. Just no one who can create baskets on their own. Maxi and Powell have been good in their supporting roles, but if they are asked to go above those roles, you begin to see the warts.
