The timvp ST take:
Jeremy Sochan
The Mavs were sagging off of Sochan and trying to force him to take on a larger role offensively. The strategy worked. Sochan was okay-ish from three-point range (3-for-9) but was a disaster inside of the arc (1-for-6). His passing was smarter than usual but he needed to shoot better to make the Mavericks pay. Sochan scoring 13 points on 15 shots when he was left unguarded much of the evening isn’t going to cut it. Defensively, he was solid. He moved his feet well out on the perimeter, he was disciplined and he rebounded well. But, yeah, Sochan can’t be such a liability on offense and still be a net positive player.
