That’s a very reasonable take. I feel like the Mavs are in a solid position. I actually like having the easier games early to help them get up to speed and figure things out. Hopefully they can keep the pace and interior attacking up because that’s doing wonders to open up the 3-point game (which is what I’ve been yelling into my keyboard for the past 5 years)
The biggest improvement for the Mavs this season is that they are winning these close games. Previous seasons were a completely different story. At least not at the rate that they’re doing it this year.
