At the absolute worst time of the year, the Dallas Mavericks are falling apart. It happens to a team every season around this time, and unfortunately the Mavericks are this year’s mess.
After last night’s win against the San Antonio Spurs, the Mavericks sit eighth in the Western Conference. The Oklahoma City Thunder and the Los Angeles Lakers are lurking right behind them, and they’ve pulled even the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The road ahead is rough. Seven of their next nine games are on the road, where Dallas has struggled all year.
