[Weber] Dallas Mavericks bigs Dereck Lively II and Daniel Gafford working on threes from the left corner. First time I’ve seen Gafford work on threes since being a Maverick. Lively II continues to show that his touch from downtown is there and growing.

    I want them to have Lively shoot 1 wide open three in every game next season. I’m trying to see something, that arc he gets on free throw line (whether he makes them or not) is quite intriguing.

  2. Hope they work their free throws too. They were better last game, lets keep them that way.

    No no no no no.

    Leave the bigs in the paint.

    Stretching out bigs to float on the three point line at 30% even, will allow their defender to sag off and double someone clogging the paint for our drivers.

    We have had a turn of success since we got our big guys being in the paint catching lobs and recovering rebounds for extra possessions and 2nd chance points.

    Edit:

    That center isn’t going to leave the paint to guard a 30% 7’ shooter. They will always collapse to defend the rim. It’s one thing to want them to do that, it’s another for them to actually abandon their job as a rim protector and rebounder. Nice try. They will always sag back to the paint, not be dumb and leave the lane open cuz a guy makes 1/3 when Luka will just get open layups every time if they do

    Look at Chet. He spends too much time at the 3point line. Getting out rebounded by us because he isn’t in the paint. His shot isn’t falling on top of that.

    My god, DLive with a 3 pointer would be unspeakably good

    Neither of these guys will ever be a 3pt shooter.

    Always good to have some versatility, Kleber is getting old.

  7. Reggie miller was complementing livelys shooting form in the free throw line I can see why he has a good followthrough so does gafford but I can see lively hitting more 3s

    Next year Lively will be stretching the floor 💯
