That we don't have any low post scorers is a huge revelation to anyone who's prone to surprise whenever the sun comes up. The blanket statement, "no real big men," though, reflects a national perspective, maybe, but not that of most Mavs fans.. Damp and Diop both are fine defenders, we like to believe.
But is the belief grounded in reality? Is there a website with good stats for where opponents are scoring from? Or even how many layups and dunks opponents get?

According to 82games.com, our opponents take 35% of their shots close to the basket (this includes close shots, dunks, and tips). The Mavs take 28% of their shots close to the basket.
