Theis - with Zubac - keeping Jokic in check and scoring 8 points along with 11 rebounds and 3 blocks while being +14 in 21 minutes.
This guy was there for the taking, Dirk should have recruited him and we‘d have a nice one-two punch with him and Lively…
I would have liked to have had Theis here as a backup center option. If healthy, he'd be a good fit here.
I can't criticize the Mavs on this though. It doesn't seem like he chose the Clippers because the Mavs rejected him. He probably just wanted to be in LA like almost every other NBA player. He'd probably rather play for Ty Lue than Jason Kidd.
