Luka 28 % from 3
Bullock 29% from 3 (boy are his starts ugly early)
DFS 33% from 3
Hardaway 31 % from 3 (32% overall ouch)
On the flip side, I will be surprised if Dinwiddie stays above 40% from three. In fact, I wish he would cut down on his 7 attempts a game and get more baskets going to the rim.
I think history has shown Luka, Bullock and DFS will eventually shoot better. Hopefully Hardaway follows. While this will not solve all ills it will certainly help.
Looking at this summer, you can make the case the Mavs were right that they needed to be bigger to rebound better and protect the paint. They just chose the wrong player...so far. I have also seen enough of Facu to say he is a fit of a emergency point. He can fill that role. He would not have been my choice and I think the Mavs should have been more aggressive on a player who can play more...but minutes are tricky.
Looking forward, I am happy with the progress with Josh Green. Lets hope it continues. I also think Hardy is an important developmental piece. We will see if he ever makes it but finding young talent to develop has always been a weak spot here.
Lastly, it would be ideal if this team could identify not realized talent and swoop in. It is really hard. I was looking at Jordan Clarkson the other day and saw Utah picked him up by trading Dante Exum and two seconds. There are a lot of guys out there....finding them is the tough part. Unfortunately our front office does not inspire much confidence.
