He looks like Gobert on defense and yet has all the offensive tools of a shooting guard and more. Still think Mavs need one more big. Mavs bigs played really well for the most part. Rick again decided to go small late for a long stretch to let the Raps back in it. Maybe if we had one more big he wouldn't do that. Love me some KP.I agree. KP is restarting a young career here in Dallas. He is going to be awesome (barring serious injury) for years to come. We are less than 1/2 of 1 season into his career (take 2) and he is already a force to be reckoned with.
Also I am tired of media people saying KP needs to play like a max player. He may not be shooting super efficiently on offense but his defense is just amazing. I will take this player all day every day because he plays winning basketball. I am so happy he has bought into Rick's system. He isn't going to be Knicks KP but that's not necessarily a problem. He is going to be a 20/10 guy with suffocating defense and his efficiency numbers will go up over time.
