    The Mavs are pathetic defensively. By far the most overrated team coming into the season. They will be 8th seed once OKC overtakes them in the standings.

    I don't see how anyone can think the Mavs are contenders with their defense.

    Yep.

    For those wondering if our defense is just "Luck" or whatever, watch this game.

    Without Dwight we put up better fight against this Warriors team. It's not luck, it's just about contesting every shot and realizing that if Curry is 3 feet from the 3 point line he's still open.

    Nah! It's just that the Warriors are just sooooo good! Let's give them the title after this game. No way, anyone can beat the MVP Curry or the best SG since Kobe in Thompson.

    Also I will contend this notion that the Mavs are #1 offense in the NBA. If they were this would be a fast paced up and down game.

    They put up great numbers against lesser teams, that's about all it is so far.

    Dallas just realized that Chandler Parsons is their most important and only perimeter defender. Chandler "I'll get the next one" Parsons...

    Klay can't create open shots for anyone. Livingston is very good.

    If Parsons is Dallas' most important and only perimeter defender, they are screwed beyond repair.

    Mavs homer Marc Stein will still put the Mavs ahead of the Rockets in his power rankings next week

    Man, if the Rockets had one more healthy body, could have been any one of the 5 players out, Rockets would have crushed GSW...

    This is pretty clear. Their offense goes down a few notches when Curry goes out.

    Curry is a legit MVP candidate though obviously and if they continue this pace he's going to win.

    Isn't Dallas like winless against Western Conference playoff teams? These dudes are total frauds.
