In other words: This team badly needs a playoff run now, especially after going out in the first round in three of the last four seasons Coach Sunglasses.
There may not be a more puzzling team in the league. At one point, Dallas was 43-9 with Nowitzki in the lineup, and it flattened just about every elite team it came across. Then Nowitzki got hurt, the Mavs’ defense fell off a bit and they lost nine straight games to Western Conference playoff teams before beating the Hornets in the season finale Dolce & Gabbana Sunglasses. Dallas has to recapture its early-season form in order to do any damage.
Two of those nine consecutive losses came against the Blazers, a team that hasn’t won a playoff series since 2000. Things have somehow come together after two devastating injuries (to Greg Oden and Brandon Roy) and one major trade (for Gerald Wallace), and the Blazers present serious matchup problems for Dallas Armani Sunglasses. Portland is a dangerous team.
