Totally agree with your post. My post was pretty poorly written. I intended for the post to be about the Mavs talent gap. If you compare player for player the Mavs guys produced at similar levels to most of the Clippers guys.
KP’s situation is a case of misplaced expectations. If you expected him to contribute like a number 2 he fell way short. His production most closely matched Morris. Both guys are important but neither is a star.
Where things really start to diverge in terms of production among guys who got significant minutes is when you get to Boban & WCS. They both did some good things - and in Boban’s case he probably kept the Mavs competitive- but those guys don’t come close to matching Paul George.
Not sure if that makes sense. It’s just a weird way of pointing out the obvious. Dallas needs a secondary creator.
And I think I have the answer but that will be the subject of another post.
