I would say that the Mavs are contenders even after last night's fail. It was the 2nd game of a back-to-back and the Mavs shot the ball like a WNBA team last night. That's not going to happen all the time. Besides, a team can't win every game. The Mavs are a lot better than they were last season. The Mavs could probably make it out of the West this year if they did not have to play the Lakers in the playoffs. Stern will decide the final outcome. When April comes around, he will meet with his minions(refs) and they will decide what is going to happen in the playoffs and who will be in the Finals and win it.
