Mavs want to create open 3s.
That's the play second only to a Luka drive.
Shooting (3s) comes and goes, it's why the Mavs can't hold on to leads (apart from poor FT shooting and mediocre defense down the stretch)
Offense is too 3 heavy.
Almost unbeatable when they're making ém but when they're not, they can lose to teams like Detroit.
It´s not as much about creating open 3s. It´s about the spacing. You can have the best post player or iso scorer in the league. As long as the defense doesn´t respect the shooters he will have a hard time. Look at the Lakers early in the season. LBJ, AD and Westbrook. All struggling because the spacing was terrible.
It´s not about shooting more/less 3s. All about the threat.
