That is a very, very significant drop in assists. A drop by more than half. A ball in Irving's hands means that ball spending less time the hands of THJ and Green. He didn't have a single game with 5 assists since then and he averaged nearly 6. He came into the league AS A POINT GUARD. It is good for Mavs when he scores AND CREATES PLAYS FOR OTHERS.

And that drop in the field-goal percentage is statistically very significant.

Its a lack of strategy. There's no reason we can't run similar plays to GS and treat Kai like Steph. Run him off screens and cuts...but our coaching staff is content with "give it to Luka and Fvck off".

I agree Kai needs way more touches, but its a total lack of structure. We need a new coach, like NOW.
