Lakers, its real close - Lebrons experience is priceless. The Clippers match up well against Dallas. The Bucks - well we dont know - we will see. Boston is a solid squad. I don't think Denver would beat Dallas in a 7 game series.
Here’s what excites me about the season thus far:
Against the 7 teams ranked ahead of your #8 Mavericks in this week's ESPN power rankings (not the same without Stein, but still a decent ranking), Dallas is 4-3, with a +5 margin despite playing 4 of the 7 on the road. Those games in order,
W @ Denver +3
L vs Lakers -9 (in OT)
L @ Boston -10
W vs Toronto +8
W @ Houston +14
L vs Clippers -15
W @ Lakers +14
Total 4-3 +5
