The only game the twolves won was after they kicked lively in the neck and he had to rest for that game.

Mavs added Klay Naji & Grimes. All amazing 3poimt shooters and defenders even though klay obviously isnt in his prime anymore but he’s still averaged 18ppg on 39% 9 3pt FGA a game. Great roster and one of the deepest bench ITL. Also spence, great ball handler and can create shots and clutch and was a huge part of that 2022 WCF run. Also a 7’5 defensive stopper. They were just a few pieces away from beating Boston and I think they’ll be able to this time with hopefully a HEALTHY Luka and Kyrie getting over the hump. Whoever they meet, I think they will beat.

If Luka got into better shape this offseason, worked on his defense and built some stamina then Mavs should be easily second on this list (yes I’m a life long Celtics fan so I’m biased lol).
