He looked amazing for the Mavs but I’m not as confident in him as @"KillerLeft". TBD if the fit here is so amazing or if it was a post trade I have a chip on my shoulder over performance.
Yes, the 40% is likely a combination of small sample noise and the fact that he was shooting more catch and shoot (wide) open threes with the Mavs than he generally does. If I had to guess, I would put him around 36%, which is good enough for spacing, but not as impactful as last season.
As Dan mentioned, I think he will be on the court with Luka less than Timmy, who is a better fit when McGee is on the floor anyways. They should probably be doing Luka/Timmy backcourt, which I am guessing would get roughly the same grade due to Luka.
If they managed to trade for Conley, he would probably start and I am guessing the Luka/Conley backcourt would be rated higher than any of the other combinations. Conley is very good on or off the ball and a better defender than the rest of them.
