Suns Fans: The Mavericks making the Finals as a five-seed doesn’t make the regular season irrelevant

The Dallas Mavericks are on the verge of making the NBA Finals for the first time since 2011. Up 3-0 against the Minnesota Timberwolves after missing the Play-In last season, Luka Donu010diu0107, Kyrie Irving, and crew appear to be heading toward an epic, star-studded clash with the Boston Celtics.

With one more win, Dallas will join the 2019-2020 Miami Heat as the only team to make the finals as a five-seed. The Mavs will be the first to do it in a non-pandemic-impacted season.

One of the main reasons for their postseason success is their trade deadline moves.
