OK, so the Mavericks are having the first four days of training camp in Las Vegas.
Anybody else see what they did there?
Remember last fall when they opened the preseason halfway around the world in Abu Dhabi against Minnesota? That trip, which also included a stop in Spain for a second preseason game against the Timberwolves, gave the Mavericks more than a week to get cozy with one another, build camaraderie, have dinners together and basically create a feeling of family.
Maybe it’s not coincidence that the Mavericks and Wolves were the last two teams standing in the Western Conference.
