This was a GOOD lineup.
But the best lineup of the year (with significant minutes) was:
Luka/THJ/ DFS/DP/Kleber
Offense: 128.3
Defense: 93.5
Net: +34.8
And my strong opinion from looking at lots of lineups:
DFS needs to play alongside two bigs to be most effective. The Mavs are NOT at their best with him at PF/4.
Maybe this is why the Mavs paid a 2nd round pick for Johnson and wanted Gallinari so bad. They know that DFS is NOT a PF/4 and cannot play heavy minutes there. And KP is out to start....and DP is a question mark.
Luka
Richardson
THj
DFS
Maxi
