The NBA season is still too far away and those who want to talk about the league are trying to do so by saying outlandish things or trying to re-write history. The Dallas Mavericks are getting writers from both ends of the spectrum talking about anything from them being a top tier team to a bottom-dwelling, top 5 pick. Neither of these are likely going to be true.
In reality, the Mavs have put together a team that looks like they can be pretty good. They have paired Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis together to make a great star pairing that can rival the best in the league.
