Look for two things tonight from Miami against Charlotte:
– One of the few teams they can switch everything against
– Big Butler game. When Lowry returned recently, the Charlotte game spearheaded a ton with Butler attacking mismatches and thriving
Both should happen tonight – 6:24 PM

Let’s mix some sports metaphors as the Mavs need to keep their eye on the ball in this last game pre All Star in NO and build on their win in MIA. @PeasRadio pre at 6:30. Tip w/Brad & me at 7:10 @theeagledallas – 1:47 PM
Peter Edmiston @peteredmiston
Only 3 players have shot 40+% from three and 90+% from the foul line within their first two seasons:
Stephen Curry (10-11), Duncan Robinson (19-20), and Desmond Bane (this yr). Of those, only Curry and Bane have done it with a USG above 20%.
