With Luka's & Kai's talents it might be enough to propel us to a deep playoff run, but when playoff basketball starts and we get players doing hard close-outs, we're going to need our guys (all of them) to take the ball to the basket. This is why I've been advocating for getting Hardy more minutes. He's a downhill player.

Mavs 100% have to be better defensively and on the boards.
Right now we are the Dantoni Suns and offense wins in the regular season, but defense gets you to the WCF/Finals. We saw how our offense wilted against big/strong/long defense in Toronto so our offense has to be even better while we need to find ways to get to at least the top half of the league in defense/rebounding.
