Dick Motta’s 10 game set

[Chicagojk]

Next 10 includes six road games.  There is a road back to back this week and four games in five nights this week with three of those on the road:

@NO
@Wash
@Milwaukee
Sac
@Lakers
@Clippers
Hou
Memphis
OKC
@Memphis

That an interesting next 10.  A few wounded animals but also some teams who were expected to be good.  I am not someone to say we have only beat average to bad teams.  You play who you play.  Although I think it is fair to say with the first 10 (outside of Denver) that if the Mavs played well they had a really good chance to win the game.   As you play better teams, you may games even if you play well.   That is why you beat the lesser teams.  It just gives you more room to withstand a bad stretch, a brutal loss or minor injury.
