Are the Dallas Mavericks – before their devoted fans very eyes – developing into a team that can also engage in a roughrider

style of play? If Thursday night’s game against the Utah Jazz is any indication, it sure looks that way.

Not only did the Mavs spend the majority of the night pushing the Jazz around. But they did so while finishing the night with an un-heard of 18 dunks.

In other words, the Mavs converted 43 field goals against Utah. And 18 of them were dunks. That’s 41.9 percent of their made field goals.
