It's a very disappointing loss, but lots of good came out of it, the glaring bad thing is what we expected, the moment Dinwiddie goes to bench, Luka is much easier to blitz, I think Wood can be a good release valve until a good player comes along.
Yeah i agree with that. I think Kidd is trying to figure out what works and what not. It was a bit easier with Brunson since he had sick ball handles and he could cover Luka on offense but Dinwiddie will have to play in much better form to be a real threat. So it's basically Luka and Wood for now. It is also evident that THJ will need couple of games to slow down a bit and fix his shot to what it was.
Problem with that roster is that Luka's usage will go up even more. If someone believes that he can play 82 games RS with usage near 40%, play good D and be efficient, good luck with that.
It has been constantly proved that Luka with too high usage, especially in late game, is NOT a good thing to DAL. We always need 2-3 players can self create offsense. Luka + 4 shooters watching him solo on the court, is not a good thing.
