Why The Dallas Mavericks Do The Deal
Here’s the relevant question: what does a Doncic/Irving backcourt need? It doesn’t need scoring. The duo has got that covered. They don’t badly need playmaking either, although another facilitator would give this offense an extra dimension.
What they do need is defense. Badly. This is a poor defensive pair. Adding an elite stopper could unlock the Mavericks’ full potential.
Why not add the best defender of his generation? Moreover, Green adds that extra facilitation. If the Warriors make him available this summer, the Mavericks should jump at the opportunity to land him.
There isn’t time to waste for the Mavericks. They are rapidly approaching a point where their efforts to build a supporting cast around Doncic are an abject failure with one-dimensional, aging role players, with the limitations exacerbated by an all-in trade.
