Daniel Gafford & Pj Washington Mavs Debut Was INSANE…
Daniel Gafford and PJ Washington made their Dallas Mavericks debut today and it certainly looks like there’s potential let’s just go to the film So Daniel Gafford is listed at 610 looks 7 foot to me has a wingspan of 72 do the simple mathematics he’s a great lob
Threat having lob threats next to Luca and his gravity and passing ability it isn’t fair he’s facing up at the three-point line kenrich Williams sneaks over to take away his drive but now that puts Isaiah Joe on Daniel Gafford he is just too strong for Joe he seals him off
Luca then throws it up where only he can get it and Gafford says you’re too small my friend Luca gets the rebound and look at his IQ he knows where everyone is on the court immediately and I mean immediately in 0.1 seconds he looks up and fires away knowing Gafford is
Running the floor W he has a size Advantage down there PJ Washington is also 67 with athleticism another lob threat so the Mavericks guy Lively gaffer Derrick Jones Jr and Washington lobs for days with Luca donic look at this play OKC pays for switching everything Washington is the first
Screen now a point guard switches on to him which makes it easier for Tim Hardaway Jr to effectively screen he destroys Wallace now Washington has a full head of steam with a height and weight Advantage Luca from the logo perfect delivers the lob PJ Washington adds his most value as a driver
Attacking advantages or Closeouts Luca draws multiple Defenders pass out to Maxi pass to Kyrie to Washington check closing out hard so Washington hits him with the pump fake easy Blow by then he kicks it out to the open Derrik Jones Jr he attacks the Wide Open Space Bounce
Pass back to Washington easy dunk if I made a PowerPoint presentation for how to run an effective offense I would include that play everyone did their job and was playing unselfishly making quick decisions and now here in the Fast Break situation Kyrie says go to work my guy
Then he slows up just to hit the Jets right away and he goes into the body of kenri Williams he’s out of position and he falls down tons of contact created two at the line and then right here Washington defensively gets above the three-point line to guard the Shay pick
And roll showcasing his defense versatility he pokes at loose Luca finishes the job look at Gafford run the floor my man is quick for a near seven-footer my goodness fancy behind the back from Josh Gafford throws it down with authority Josh giddes in the game and the Mavs say thank you very
Much for that because it means Gafford can roam off of him and they will live with giddy 3es Shay Blows By green it doesn’t matter because Tyson Chandler oh my bad I mean Daniel Gafford with the 72 wingspan denies it he can hold his own in isolation on the perimeter here he
Gets challenged and wins having Lively and Gafford is gamechanging for the Mavericks because that means one Elite rim protector is going to be on the court at all times when the team is fully healthy a quick word from our sponsor bet us on the site right now
Dallas is plus 1,800 throw down $25 you could win $450 their roster is better than what it was was when they made the 2022 Western Conference Finals in my opinion when healthy they got Luca so ultimately they have a chance use promo code join 125 they’ll give you 125%

Screen was enough so he just starts rolling right away now Luca picks up speed and it’s one on two the point guard is the weak side help simply too small throw it up and he can’t even contest that same play this time OKC guards much more aggressively and they
Have a taller weak side Defender to try to stop the lob unfortunately Luca is a wizard and recognizes PJ Washington is but naked in the corner because they’re aggressively guarding the role of Gafford next possession Washington receives the kick out cas wall is afraid of his jumper closes out hard see you
Later this is his signature he loves attacking downhill stopping a dime and hits a sweet floater again Luca finds Daniel rolling and he is just too big he keeps fighting scratching and claing once he gains control he takes the contact goes through it and the sweet
Touch from him takes over two strong and one and then look at him fight for the offensive rebound he averages 2.9 offensive rebounds per game he will consistently create extra opportunities for the Mavericks PJ is such an upgrade from Grant Williams my goodness he draws two here from driving Easy Pass easy
Three but this is what happens when they don’t heavily help on his drive he is trustable and consistently will win his battle one-on-one downhill when he’s attacking what a debut I mean it could not have gone any better let me know your thoughts Below in the comments

Those 12, healthy, can beat any squad in a 7-game series besides:
Healthy full tilt Boston
Healthy Denver
That rebound direct assist is so Kidd
I feel that the Mavericks have one of the best starting lineups they have ever had when fully healthy. The biggest advantage they now have is depth. They can continuously keep the pressure on the opponent. If they are able to add Spencer Dinwiddy back in the mix, there is no telling how far they can go. I'm just happy that we have two active, athletic centers. The only other one we had was Chandler, and we know how that worked out for them. If you don't, just ask LeBron.
Mavs just got bigger and stronger.
Great breakdown, love your work
Great chess peice to go deep in playoffs!! Fun team to watch.
Gafford reminds me of chandler too 😂 it’s hella funny cuz I said the same thing
mavs looked transformed, legit scary good athletes all over the court now, super deep roster, Luka being a poor defender no longer really matters as much since there are elite long guys to help everywhere.
Mavs are back in Business !!!
I remember watching Russ throwing lobs to Gafford on the Wizards few years and thought he be the perfect fit next to Luka.
1:37 … that's just good basketball
ESPN graded the Mavs a D on the trades -.-
Dallas actually has some solid depth now only thing that can hold them back is Kyries health and defense.
you forgot pj washingtons 7'2" wingspan
This roster is great, I'm so excited. Within a week the season has changed.
Anyone missing Porzingis? Don’t think so…😊
Can the Mavs stay healthy? That is the real question.
Build Nico a statue!!
Wow. Holy cow. I knew this was going to happen. I knew it. MFFLfrustrations that have been pent up for so long, are released. Gafford is our starting center.period. and Lively will learn so much from him. PJ is What we wanted and has now come to fruition.
And news for those skeptics who say Well this was just the first game and there was a lot of hype. Luka and Ky will not allow that. They have energy!They have what they have wanted. This is a major playoff team here guys.
Mavs win chip this year.
Make a 5 year anniversary compilation of tobias harris greatest career moments
Dallas fixed a few of their main problems: Rim protection (especially with Livley out), offensive rebounding, perimeter defense and physical toughness. They thought Grant Williams would be an upgrade while actually he was a negative factor on and off the court. The Mavs will get that 6th seat
4:18 Pause ⏯️
I gotta say, watching them play together for the first time and having this much natural chemistry is simply a hats-off to Nico Harrison. The way these two fit in at first glance and if they keep it consistent… At this point all the weight should fall on J Kidd's coaching abilities.
Butt naked 😂😂
this is what a lil help does when u have luka doncic on ur team
Imagine Gafford with Steph on pick n rolls? GS mgmt sleeping.
Bruh it's one game 😂😂😂
Mavs really made the right pics – looking forward to a defensive stronger contender?
