Mavericks must face the Klay Thompson gut punch they can't ignore any longer

Dallas Mavericks fans have been begging for Jason Kidd to start D'Angelo Russell thanks to their glaring need for more ball handling and playmaking, but with Kidd's insistence on running the big starting five, there is a different lineup change that he needs to consider.

Max Christie has proven that he deserves to get a starting nod soon, and this would come at the cost of Klay Thompson's spot as the team's starting shooting guard. He has held this role for his entire Mavericks tenure thus far, and this would definitely be a tough pill to swallow if Kidd does decide to make this decision.
