It has not been a big secret that the Dallas Mavericks have had a relatively easy schedule up to this point. Aside from having only one back-to-back so far, the Mavs have also only played 5 games against current playoff teams. There was no way to predict that it would be this easy considering the terrible start for both the Blazers and the Spurs, but it is what it is.
After taking down the defending champion Toronto Raptors last week, the Mavs had three straight games of pretty convincing wins. the Spurs were first who usually give Dallas some fits, but the way they are playing right now, that was not the case.
