I found a pretty good NBA (not Mavs specific) podcast trying to make sense of the Mav's hot start. I thought it was a fun listen. I'll share my thoughts later, so I don't ruin it for you. The Mavs part starts at 17.20. Enjoy!

I really liked the comment that there are two round teams and four round teams.
Thinking Basketball is one of the best basketball channels in youtube.
Btw, that Cody guy sounds exactly like Nick Angstadt of Locked on Mavs
Loved the talk. Always thought to consider a team legit you had to get to 8 playoff-rotation killers. Not guys who always kill it. But guys who just might win you a game in a series of 7. How close can we get to 8?
1. Luka
2. Kyrie
3. Derek
4. Tim
5. Grant
6. Healthy Maxi
7. Dante?
8. Josh? Derrick? Jaden?

You called it cause they just made a dedicated video for it on their channel complete with game examples of what they are talking about. Love Thinking Basketball:
They're NOT legit. Period.
Until the Mavs get at least one guy who can ease the bullying the Mavs are taking from teams with length, the Mavs would just be a race car that could be slammed by a 10 wheeler truck off the road.
A big rebounding wing with good D? can be a PF, a backup C who can help on the boards.. anything/anyone who can help.
Right now it's just Lively.
