Can he hit his 3's CHECK
Is he capable in the pick and roll? CHECK (although Houston fans think he's lazy on picks)
Can he hit the pick and pop? CHECK
Is he mobile enough on defense to cover the perimeter? CHECK
Is he a shot blocker? NOPE
Is he a plus rebounder? CHECK

Too early to say who your starting 5 is since we don't know if we're actually keeping Jalen Brunson. However, who is your starting 5 right now? Also I am digging the depth, especially if Josh Green shows significant growth this year.
1 Luka Doncic
2 Spencer Dinwiddie
3 Reggie Bullock
4 Dorian Finney-Smith
5 Christian Wood
If we keep Jalen Brunson, then that's a nice problem to have. I just don't want to see anyone else go. lmao

With Dinwiddie, Maxie, and THJ as the main reserves.
I'm STOCKED about our lineup - especially since we have everyone early enough to get the defense drilled in.

Don't you mean Green, Powell, and Bertrans as the main reserves?
Seriously, I hope Green surprises us all this season. Bertrans will just be some instant offense. Powell? Well, he's a fun player to watch when Luka feeds him.

Given that Powell is expiring, he's one of the few tradeable assets we have left, so I'm hoping we use him to get a serviceable wing.

In a month and a half I wonder which team will have the biggest changes. Lakers? Nets? Jazz? Some other team? It's crazy to me how many changes this Mavericks team could potentially make after making it to the WCF. Difference is? These changes will likely improve the team as opposed to those after winning the championship.

I like those 3 for depth. Its a long season.
And I loved Powell when he was a member of the Bench Mob - maybe he can return to that player.
