I think it's this. He knows he can get a step-back 3 anytime he wants one, so when the offense isn't flowing or when he's just too winded to drive the ball, he settles for the easy shot (albeit a bad one).
This is why the Mavs need TWO creators on the floor together, so that if Luka is settling, there is someone else to get the offense cooking. Kidd figured it out. Brunson was that guy. But MBT knew better in the summer. Now, no one.
Until they get that other guy, this is what happens. The ball sticks. Bad shots. And Luka ends up with sky-high usage rates. Wood can make shots, but he can't be that Brunson replacement.
Someone figure out how to trade THJ for Brunson, and problem solved.
