Anyone else concerned about the Mavs?

[urunobili]

Of course. They're for real

[SpursFan86]

Look at the teams they've beaten:

Jazz
Pelicans
Celtics
Jazz
Kings
76ers
Timberwolves
Hornets
Wizards
Lakers

They lost to us, got blown out by Portland, and lost to Miami.

I originally predicted Dallas to be a 5-7th seed, and I stand by that. Let's wait to see how they play against better opponents before getting worried. As of now I don't consider them a legitimate threat.

I'm a total homer, and yes I am worried about the mavs........and the thunder.........and the rockets........and tiago's calf.....and Patty's shoulder......and the economy........and Isis....., and illegal immigration and social security........and drought.........etc.

No they will be a step worse on defense this year.

[Sean Cagney]

Definitely. Mavs are legit.

Durant and Westbrook coming back within a week maybe: http://www.rotoworld.com/headlines/n...od-at-practice

So yeah, Thunder scare me more than the Mavs but they scare me too. Teams that concern me:

1. Thunder
2. Bulls
3. Cavs
4. Mavs
5. Rockets
6. Warriors

Depends, if they can round out their defense to be top 10 (which shouldn't be too hard), then they are legitimate contenders. Their offense is already clicking on all cylinders and they have the rest of the season to figure out their defense. Yes, they will be very tough to face in the playoffs.
