The Mavs got to the finals with their defense while struggling almost ever step of the way on offense. Something that you forget to qualify in your excellent analysis. Do you think that is repeatable next season?
If the offense next season is Luka-Kyrie or bust, I guarantee the Mavs won't be winning the finals next season.
