Perhaps he learned how to run the system since last game
I am not going to bash a vet 4 games into the post-season as they are still getting warmed up. Plus he has to adjust to new players.

Arroyo did take advantage of the Mavs swiss-cheese interior defense like a lot of the other players going in for easy layups.

Part of the reason for the 2 assists are the 3 To's which were made by attempting difficult passes.
Overall Arroyo is just not seeing the open players. One play while Arroyo was dribbling around with the ball Darko was wide-open and had a mismatch but Arroyo just did not look in that direction.

Give it time.
