I guess the thinking might be that sometimes Green will get minutes (THJ at guard) and other times Ntilikina will get minutes (THJ at the 3). I assume this will be matchup driven, and based on how the guys are performing to an extent.
In other words, we are circling the realization that this off-season has been an almost complete failure.
And I’ll say it again: I find the idea that Powell will be on the roster and NOT in the everyday rotation highly suspect.
It is not looking promising. I still believe smart organizations who are disciplined can improve on the edges. The Clippers found Reggie Jackson and re-habbed him. They they got Batum for nothing. they also found Zubac for very little. These are the type of moves I want to see for Dallas. They may be tough to find out there now. One hope I have is Kidd really gave players freedom and we saw a lot of growth this year from several players. Hopefully they target those types of players who fit in well here and where we will get their best ball.
