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

Luka is a BIG Lively fan wow.

Mavs are 11-7 with Luka/Kyrie/Lively playing. Thats a 56 win pace!

I don't think Lively is a big 3 yet, but his performance so far has shown he has a real good chance to get there.  Maybe much sooner than we all hoped.    I think he has a chance to be a good #4 for a contender next year.   Mavs have a lot of guys who are 5-8 rotation players...although I am not sure all fit on our team as a contender.   So that leaves that #3 player.    It will be a tricky fit.  That player best skill ideally cannot be scoring.    But a guy who can score when needed but can impact games while going up against the top wings in the league.   Add that player, continue to develop internally, and make those smart fringe signings and we may have something.  At least for those 45 games Kyrie plays
