Outside of the playoffs and marquee matchups, this is one of my favorite parts of the season — the excited anticipation of what’s to come while thinking about the possibilities of what a new roster can do (or can’t do).
I’ve done this a couple times now, one for the first year of the Harrison Barnes era (welp), the other before last season (hooray!). Maybe I can make this a yearly column, because I really do enjoy trying to put the puzzle pieces together from my view of things. It always helps when the Mavericks have a good offseason, which thankfully they did.
