He was incredibly effective at scoring. And a net negative on D and the boards. A highly efficient, but one-dimensional player.

I'm not sure what you're reading.

It's cute to throw out words like "stacked," and you would have been right several years ago, but in the 2014 West, the Mavs were not stacked. They're good. Stacked? No. If they were stacked, they wouldn't be ranked at the very bottom of the league in defensive rebounding and 3PT defense. Basketball is about more than offense, as resistant as you may be to that.

I'm not sure what point you think you're making by cherry picking literally the only basketball skill at which Nelson excels versus Rondo, but I can assure you, it's not a very compelling one.
