RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - ReunionMav - 10-20-2021 Well put 15th. I agree. I voted 53-54. Winning 57 requires averaging 7-3 for all 8 10 game sets. To do that we will need some good winning steaks. Having at most one 5-5 ten game set helps as well.

RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - cow - 11-02-2021 40 or less* is looking better and better. RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - SleepingHero - 11-02-2021 We were competitive for most of the game and missing our 2 best front court players. I'm not going to overreact. #Istillbelievein50 RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - fifteenth - 11-02-2021 (11-02-2021, 10:39 PM)SleepingHero Wrote: We were competitive for most of the game and missing our 2 best front court players.

But my 55 looks like crazy talk RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - khaled1987 - 11-03-2021 I was at 45-46 wins, was the least win total vote at that time Don't think it is bad RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - ClutchDirk - 11-03-2021 My prediction looks to be a bad choice so far...maybe things can and will change... RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - ClutchDirk - 11-08-2021 Prediction is now looking much better at 57 wins... RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - Kammrath - 03-30-2022 Mavs need to go 4-2 or 5-1 down the stretch for my 51-52 win guess to be right. 3-3 or 2-4 for the 49-50 win crowd to be right. Those seem like the only LIKELY outcomes left on the board..... RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - Kammrath - 03-30-2022 And let's make sure we highlight that @"cow" predicted 40 or LESS wins....

I still want my very unlikely 53 win pace to come true. Actually I am amazed that 50 plus is likely given we were once 16-18! RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - Hypermav - 03-30-2022 51-52 apparently but I have no recollection of voting. RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - ThisIStheYear - 03-30-2022 Looks like the collective wisdom is right again. I was optimistic, 55 wins. But, the Mavs are a 55 win team now.

But, the Mavs are a 55 win team now. They are much better than a 55 win team now. They are 32-11 since starting a putrid 16-18, which included so many injuries and Covid issues that we were seeing a G-league team out there on a lot of nights. This team has been on a 61 win pace since Dec 31 and that is what this team is. One of the best teams in the league. Your Dallas Mavs. Enjoy the ride.

Your Dallas Mavs. Enjoy the ride.I have to admit, I’ve been guarding myself for what I thought would be an inevitable let down on that pace. To their credit, it has not happened. Still believe we won’t see the second round, but will hope I’m wrong with the rest of you. JB, SD and DFS large steps up throughout the year is getting my hopes up though.

The Clippers weren't a "first round team" these past two years. Even now, with only Paul George, I'm almost as worried about them as I am PHX. I think they're a GREAT team. I think those two series have helped quite a bit. Last year's uninspired, non-defending Mavs took them to 7, despite LAC being possibly the worst matchup in the West for them. IMO, Carlisle really messed up by panicking and changing course in that series (lol, Boban) rather than doubling down on what got them that 2-0 lead. If you don't think this season's team is better, you haven't been paying attention. Every time I think they're out of a game, they find a new gear I didn't previously realize was available to them. I won't be shocked if they lose in the first round, don't get me wrong. But, I feel like they're going to be favored. Home court advantage, etc. For the first time in a looooooong time, these playoffs leave the door open just a crack for our Mavs. (04-01-2022, 11:32 AM)ItsGoTime Wrote: JB, SD and DFS large steps up throughout the year is getting my hopes up though. Yes! And Powell! And Kleber! And Bullock! And Green!

Almost zero contribution from KP (after the 2-0 lead), JRich, Melli and Brunson, which added up to significant minutes, lost momentum and provided areas for LACs to attack. Add in THJ forgetting how to shoot, and it becomes a tribute to Luka's brilliance that the series went to 7 games. I'm thinking Reggie and SD are better contributors on both ends. Brunson seems to get less shell-shocked if he gets guarded tight. You don't have one disgruntled big sitting in the corner not contributing much. And the team seems to play together better and with more confidence than at any point prior to 2/10/22. RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - loki - 04-01-2022 I thought the Mavs would win a few games less than last year at best, but I wasn't expecting a KP trade. That throws a wrench into a lot of projections. RE: 2021-2022 DAL Wins Prediction | Vegas Line: 48.5 - ItsGoTime - 04-02-2022 (04-01-2022, 11:59 AM)KillerLeft Wrote: Yes! And Powell! And Kleber! And Bullock! And Green!I don't think I've seen Kleber take a large step forward this year (if he's even taken a step forward at all). Don't think of what we thought we were getting in Bullock and what we are seeing with him is a large step forward either. I thought of Powell after I posted and he is a step forward to me, not really a large step forward (he still does mostly what he did last year, he's just gained a bit more athleticism since the injury return). I totally spaced on Green. |
