Halfway through the regular season and hopefully much further than that through a really difficult stretch, the Mavericks are getting nothing handed to them these days.
They have lost three in a row and eight of 10 and not only haven’t been able to find much success during Luka Donu010diu0107’s time out with a left calf strain but also can’t catch a break. The non-call on an obvious goaltend in New Orleans on Wednesday was proof of that.
But life, and the second half of the season, goes on. And the challenges do, too.
