The beginning of Dallas’ 2016-2017 season has been rocky so far, losing their first 3 contests. The Mavs played without the aging franchise player Dirk in the last two games, ending in close, low scoring affairs against their Texas rival Houston Rockets.
Despite some fans unwillingness to think about the inevitable, eventually the Big German will hang them up. He has gone on the record that he plans on playing two more years, but hasn’t thrown out the idea of ending his career after this season. After nearly 20 years of greatness, Mavs fans have been spoiled by his offensive prowess and production.
