Yes, exactly.
Lack of three point range (DeRozan shoots almost none, Butler not many more) by a player who will be OFF BALL would be prohibitive with Luka and Kyrie, both of whom depend on dribble penetration to make this offense work.
There's no way the Mavs would want either player. DJJ is a better "shooter" for the Mavs' purposes than either, believe it or not.
Now...if you're replacing Kyrie? One of them could be worked in that way, but I wouldn't be into that very much, either.
