And MT doesn't have to deal with Luka not getting back on D.
I don't know if Turner is a good defender or not - that end of the floor is so so hard to measure, especially if you don't watch a team's games. And even then, you have to watch games with a singular focus on that player. And even then, it's hard to know.
FWIW, his D-rating at BR is fairly solid. If that tells us anything.
BUT ...
We do have revelatory numbers on rebounding -- which is one of the big needs for the Mavs, and a big part of what they'd want in a center -- and Turner is actually NOT GOOD for a C at rebounding. As much as I think I might like him, that really makes me wary.
