Kidd “I think when you have those types of players and Luka [Doncic] is going, putting Kai [Kyrie Irving] in the corner to create space, he’s patient enough to understand the ball will find him at times. I thought when Luka and Maxi [Kleber] or Luka and DP [Dwight Powell] in the pick-and-roll, or Timmy [Tim Hardaway Jr.], it created a problem for the defense and understanding that Luka was great getting downhill — layups or creating open shots [for teammates]. Sometimes you use great players for gravity and creating space, and that’s what Kai did there late.”

This is not a good look for attracting talent to Dallas. We did the same with KP.
So basically he doesn’t know how to scheme anything other than gravity-ball with one superstar playmaker so he just takes the other superstar playmaker and camps them out on the perimeter like a miscellaneous rotational player

Offence isnt the problem.
