    It wouldn't be the first time for them to start bad than later on to be in contention for 8th seed.

    Short answer, no. They have a better chance at getting the top pick in the draft than they do making the playoffs.

    I will be rooting for them to make the play-offs. I really don’t want to give them a crack at a top 3-5 pick to pair with Smith for the next decade.

    It's whether or not they really want to make the playoffs...

    I don’t think anyone wants the 8th seed so why not?

    Mavs is soon to have their new official name in China as "Dallas Butt Hurts".

    Take this for record.

    No, I don't think so. I wonder if they have their first round pick? If they do, they may as well try to make it a good one. They need to rebuild. I hope they make a bad job of it.

    What are you even talking about? Last year the closest they got was 8 games below .500 (and they finished 16 games below .500). They were never in contention for the 8th seed.

    They can make 10th or 9th place.
