Yeah I have really never understood why Matt Moore thinks Aminu would help us so much. Aminu has a very specific skill set/role and the Mavs are using it right because they have the players (a lot of good shooters) to surround him with. Think of an offense featuring Asik, Tyreke and Aminu all at once. That would be a complete dumpster fire.

I don't have to think of it, we saw it last year with Stiemsma in Asik's place. But again I think the flawed thinking is 2 fold. First thinking Aminu is a significantly better defender than Cunningham. I'll concede better rebounder but I don't think they're that far off in terms of defending the 3/4. Second, Aminu defends the 3/4 and our problem has been stopping 1/2. Giannis was always going to get his last night, the problem was giving MCW enough open 15 footers to make him look like a good shooter which he isn't.

I fail to understand how he doesn't see the spacing issue.

Qpon/dante are just more competent players and he's missing the fact that the mavs have a lot more veteran leaders. Qpon's exp is very valuable and he can hit a 3 at least.
