Just quoted a little bit, but man, this whole post is awesome

DP and Favors would both sit. Just like Zubac would sit.
Mavs need Doncic, Porzingis, DFS, THJ and another guard or wing unless you want them to close with Barea or Curry trying to defend Paul George, Kawhi Leonard and Lou Williams.
Some might argue that Wright is the "other guard or wing". I LOVE Wright, but he's certainly not the guy to close a playoff game unless he really ups his confidence game. I don't think the Clippers would guard him on the 3pt line, which would wreck spacing, and he turns down too many good shots. As much as I love Wright and want him develop into a closer, he's not there yet.
Yes, yes, yes! V has the goods on this topic.
