Carlisle is the best coach in the league however Pop seems to be recovering from his show last year
Haven't checked what their schedule looked so far, but they're sitting pretty at 8-4, a team that a lot of peeps thought would be missing the playoffs this season...
I know it's early, but they seem to be doing well. Is it all coaching or?

Carlisle and Dirk having a late-career renaissance ala Tim.
Hes reviving all the guards that was all good onceupon time. Dirk looks good and pachulia is a surprise. Mathews looks good.
Bottom line, the players care about winning. Dont know how carlilse motivated them to play at the intensity they are playing right now.
Probably promised felton and Deron a bucket of fried chicken, a whooper burger or an eat all you can buffet if they compete every game. They look look fatter but they are compe ive.
Carlisle is excellent at putting role players in a position to succeed which can win you games in the regular season & Dirk has his legs under him but that will change when the calendar flips to 2016.
Their SOS is easiest in the league so far. Literally 30th.
- Deron and Zaza have been solid. I'm not saying they're all stars or anything, but for what they're paying them (which is very reasonable), they are getting pretty good bang for their buck, production-wise.
- Matthews looks like a good pickup, even if they overpaid him. You can never have enough guys who can play on both ends of the floor.
- Parsons has looked good and more comfortable in his second year, even though he is under a minutes restriction coming back from injury.
- Chemistry-wise, it looks like they've put together a good group of guys. No moody jerks (Rondo), or dudes worried about their next contract and not enough about the games (Monta).
- Carlisle is like a Master Chef. Doesn't matter what ingredients are handed to him, he'll cook up something good with what he has on hand. Only Pop is better.
- Last year Dirk looked done at times. Small sample size of 12 games against an easy schedule, but he's turned in a bit of a turn back the clock performance so far.

Rc is the 2nd best coach in the NBA
They live and die with Dirk. Dirk playing at a high level can still carry a team. Team chemistry is terrific and Carlisle will always have them prepared to win. It's doubtful Dirk can sustain this for 82+ games tho, so I'd expect and Feb/March collapse.
Mavs are like a C+ student with a great teacher to keep them afloat and studying.
Jimmy Carrey is good coach.
I expected the 8 seed from season beginning
Mavs gonna sneak in as the 8 seed and upset the Warriors. Tbh.
is shooting 34%.
Spurfan praying to the basketball Gods.Mavs gonna sneak in as the 8 seed and upset the Warriors. Tbh.
Not sure where you get thatmost of the forun have wanted a spurs gsw matchup since last year
Building up a scared spursfan angle
Your not watching the games. Mathews shot horribly the first 3 games hes played otherwise hes been key
I didnt say that I just responded to the Mavs will upset the Dubs in a series post. And yes, most Spur fan SAY they want the Dubs but then throw hate and hope they lose every game thread. You can deny it if you want but it reeks of fear ... A non threat shouldnt invoke so many emotions ...Not sure where you get that

Yes and that post was so serious it even included a downspin in the end.
Would have liked to have seen what Carlisle would have done with the Spurs post 2005.
10 years.
But they are more than just Curry. Draymond has improved a great deal. Barnes is pretty humble Iggy was too until recently (he sure did revel in the Clips demise). they are a bit y but not every champ is a low key as the Spurs. Most are not.Yes and that post was so serious it even included a downspin in the end.
He's played better in these last few games. I went and looked at his overall stats for the season and was a little surprised that they're lackluster. Just going on the eye test the last couple games, he's played well.
Rondo is gone and they seem to be playing like the beginning of last year before the dumb trade
You better than that Killa, don't go the way of your idol and fall off a cliff tbh......
Rick Carlisle would have coached circles around Mcfail and bounced the Rockets hadn't that cancer Rondo suited up for them..The series was pretty close after first two games even with Parson out..It is a combination of both factors...Only an elite strategist can take the juggernaut that 2014 Spurs were to Game 7, tbh..I think they will come down in the standings but they are likely to sneak in instead of the Pelicans..Would love to see RC muck it up vs the Warrios in Round 1
