Obviously trading AW is a ridiculous idea at this point, given that he's been the Mavs' best player so far. He's done everything asked of him--shoot a high percentage, cut down his 3pt attempts, pass, cut down on turnovers, I must say I'm impressed.

However, why doesn't he get to the line more? He's taken 4 free throw attempts in 5 games this season. The 4 attempts in 5 games is below his career average PER GAME. I know he's taken more of an initiator role (as opposed to a finisher) on this team, but shouldn't he take it to the rack more (and post up more)?

I'm not ragging on him (he's played above and beyond what I had HOPED for), just curious what others think.
