While I'm sure that many Mav fans are like, "Oh, good, Landlord, PJ, and Lively can lay some lumber," such talk is absolute doom for a Luka-led Mavs team. He already has to play with one arm tied behind his back because the refs hate him and let opposing defenders beat the living crap out of him. Now they'll make that horsepucky officially legal??? Talk about not understanding where your bread is buttered.

I agree it’s not super great news from his perspective, seeing as he already feels like he doesn’t get a good whistle, but on the other hand, his physicality and size are kind of the things that make him special. So, in a way, I can envision him holding up to this type of thing much better than most other offensive focal points. It’s people like Devin Booker and SGA who have to worry more, in my opinion.
