With the Raptors wrapping up their toughest road trip of the season in Dallas, we thought it would be appropriate to bring in Tobin Hodges, Dallas native, and co-host of Spread the Floor podcast.
In addition to previewing Saturday’s game at American Airlines Center, we had to take a trip down memory lane — specifically, to the Mavericks’ surprising 2010-11 championship season.
Before that season, Miami acquired Lebron James and Chris Bosh, immediately turning the Heat into heavy favourites (+175) to capture the title. Further down the preseason championship odds list was Dallas at +2000 (7th).
