Powell On, Lively Off: 128.2 (1st Percentile)
It's not all on DP but he represents the bench unit and the Mavs' Bench Defense has been a big issue.
Lineups with DP & THJ: 132.4 Defensive Rating
(0 Percentile, I did not think that was possible)

Its interesting because Powell had one of the best defensive ratings and defensive on/off last year on a much bigger sample. Does that mean he was good last year and terrible this year? Does it mean he is generally playing with a different group of folks who are much worse defensively? Does is mean that these numbers are very noisy, especially for a 12 game sample? Its probably some combination of all three.
