MAVS NEWS: Luka Is Hurt, But is Trudging On | DLive's Mom Passes Away| Maxi OUT

[dirkfansince1998]

I remember Reggie often getting stuck trying to defend and rebound inside. He tried hard in there but how much does it help Reggie if our bigs improve to below average instead of awful and he plays less against starters?  He was the first player Nico brought in. He has been good before. If he is your 10.7 million 7th guy with an expiring contract and likable enough, he could be a decent net positive.

I think he had to play more of an inside role and guard up (SFs and PFs) because his lateral quickness declined badly. Even compared to other Mavs he stood out as a traffic cone. Couldn´t stay in front of anyone all season long.
The big-guard dynamics work both ways. How much better would the bigs look next to perimeter defenders that could stay in front of their matchup.
