AROUND the NBA:

[Mavs2021]

It's his 3rd season.  He might not ever be a top ten offensive player, but if he develops a midrange game that would help a ton.  He's a basketballaholic so I don't think anything definitive can be said about him.  He also seems like the type that will use this finals embarrassment to get in the lab.

Look he´s super young and I´m not saying he won´t, but this same thing played out in FIBA with France twice already, where he kept chucking away threes, despite them not falling. So he could have had that lightbulb moment already. I think it´s just real difficult to play that way at 7´6. It was impossible for Porzingis at 7´4. 

Good for Brunson, but knowing the Mavs should have won one of these titles the last two years makes me hope somebody is spitting in Nico´s food again tonight.
