Do you see Kidd sticking with Lively in the starting lineup for the foreseeable future? I feel like Gafford doesn't rebound or defend well enough to be starting the game and was one of the main culprits of the Mavs' slow start this season. I know Kidd always mentions foul trouble for Lively but Lively won't get better if he doesn't learn through it.

I think the gap between Lively and Gafford is bigger than most do, so I hope so. So, expanding Lively's minutes and enabling Gafford to go all-in, with energy against opposing bench units.

Yeah I agree. I think for the Mavs to reach their full potential, Lively needs 30+ mins.
