He would be kinda perfect for Mavs.

Still a disaster as always

Everyone was telling us Kyrie is going to be a disaster aswell. And Kief with all his bad reputation has proven to actually be great for the locker room. After that loss vs IND he had a long discussion with the team and since then Mavs did a 180 in a positive way. Luka needs tough minded veterans to raise their voices. Last year it was also a disaster on all fronts, it's a completely different story this year.

You said the same about Irving... Maybe this time you are right. Probably not. Again.

I personally want nothing to do with Draymond, he's a walking suspension risk, and I don't see the great fit.

I'm sure the Warriors would want to replace Draymond Green with Josh Green and he can be their new leader.

The Suns are favored to beat OKC. I guess SGA is missing that game.

Just when it felt they were in total collapse... they beat the Nuggets and now OKC!? #jinx

Mavs gain healthy distance from play in.
Clippers are 2 games ahead and hold tie breaker, going to be tough going for 4th seed but Mavs should absolutely push for it.

Clippers have somewhat of a tough schedule they have @Kings (although, not sure if this is scary anymore) Denver at home, Cleveland at home, a home and home with Phoenix and close @Houston. They've been inconsistent just 12-12 in their last 24 games. If they keep that pace and we keep our winning pace we'll overtake them. Not guaranteeing that to happen though.

Pelicans have Boston and Phoenix next on their schedule. a loss ties them with the Mavs in the loss column. Making the Rockets game even more important ,as a win ties them .

The Clippers are struggling too ..... Kawhi has only scored above 30 pts once in the last 14 games and paul George only once in the last 20 games ...... I dont think they're fully healthy.

Top 3 in the west are still open, Wolves have positioned themselves very well, they own the tie breakers against OKC and Nuggets (tie in H2H at worst, tie in division record at worst with OKC, much better conference record than both teams), they only need to go toe and toe with them in W/L, they have an easy schedule to go.
I think it'll be
1. Wolves
2. Thunder
3. Nuggets

So #4 is the goal...

#4 is the best case scenario, #5 is also good, I don't want the Clippers, but if it's a choice between the Clippers and the Nuggets, it's a very easy choice.

Can we please talk about how great our locker room is at the moment?
Couple of weeks ago it felt like it was going to implode. I know the trades helped a lot but this is still something marvelous

Denver has the 3rd easiest schedule and they are still the favorite for the 1st position to me.
The chances of them finishing 3rd are slim, especially since OKC has the 9th toughest schedule(they have to play against: Celtics, Bucks, Knicks, Mavs, Pacers and Kings).

Mavs did what luka asked for in the past offseason. Get a vet center. Get great locker room guys. Mavs did both. Massive win for the Mavs FO.
