With the #3 pick (!) in the 2018 draft, the Mavs get Luka Doncic

things i liked: obviously leaner, and more fast up and down the floor on fast breaks too, passing was crisp

things i didnt like: missed 2 free throws late to put the game away, and he still went for the stepback 3. It went in, but how many times didnt it last year.

FTs will be an issue.

clutch plays? Kyrie is the best in the league in clutch situations. 67.4% TS in the clutch last year. If we can either give it to Kyrie or train Luka to play with the rest of the team and only take stepbacks when he needs to, then we can be fine.

Hell, maybe Kyrie gets the roll at the point and Luka can work in the post. He was absolutely lethal from 5-15'

I think that would be ideal, but idk if anyone in mavs camp is suggesting that at all. But the ppp would be off the charts in my opinion
