GAME 2: Brooklyn Nets (0-2) vs. Dallas Mavericks (2-0) | 120-125 WIN!!!!!

[sefant]

DJJ + Lively looking like i expected it. Just not a fit on offense in general for obvious reasons. Small sample size, but the OffRtg outlier making it fairly obvious. Playing two non shooters doesn't work in the NBA.

Not even sure if DJJ earned many minutes so far. Exum has been more impressive on both ends. Give me Green starting, and Exum getting more mins off the bench > DJJ.

Mavs played 26 min with him and have a OffRtg < 100 with him. That is McGee 2.0 vibes in terms of stunting the overall offense. Non floor spacing player doesn't fit with Luka at all, unless you have other basketball skills. I am not convinced DJJ has them. His defensive impact isn't good enough to play him. Unless you make him a PnR target. And Lively and Powell are probably muich better at that anyway.
