Tim McMahon says the Mavs are more optimistic about Lively now than in Summer League. Looks like he’s picked up on a lot of things

I will be interesting to see how determined the Mavs to get minutes for Omax and Lively.   Both will have plenty of rough spots.  OMAX should be further ahead than Lively.   What is interesting is neither player is going to be asked to do much on offense, right away.   So can either of them learn the schemes and then attach themselves to one of our stars?  That will probably be easier for Lively imo.  

I said last year, if Green and Jaden could play we would be in a much better spot moving forward.   Lively and OMAX is the same, but even more important imo.  I would love to be here a year for now with a strong feeling both are long term fits here.    I think finding a 3rd/4th best player is not an impossible task as one of our final moves….even if we had to lose a young player or 2.  Having that young, cheap labor to go along with that thought is what brings it all together.
