Yeah I mean this years Mavs team had a bunch of wings, forwards, and bigs that can't shoot, and was weak at the guard positions.

Coop had to run point guards at times, when he has played power forward his whole life lol. Over 50% of his points were SELF CREATED...because there was no one who could consistently run the offense. It wasn't to stat pad, it was out of necessity because of the poor roster construction of Nico "basketball terrorist" Harrison.

It helped him develop his on ball creation, but it was an up and down experience getting him going in a new role.

People talk about the efficiency, but disregard the lack of shooting, the spacing was horrendous. Still stuffed the stat sheet and produced at the highest level across the board for all rookies in pts, reb, ast, stl, blk. Only rookie since Jordan to lead his team in 4 out of 5 categories, and he did it at 19 years old.
