I think so too. I said a few days ago that I don't think you can start some kind of "intention" to losing every game at mid-season.
It is kind of funny though that the Mavs don't look as bad as they did in the early part of the season. Perhaps the perimeter shooting alone makes a difference, but something seems a little different. They move well, get to their spots, get back on defense... and they do all this without two of the best players in the league. Good coaching? Effort from guys like Dwight Powell and Cisse? Probably lots of things. Maybe they're pretty good. Not really good. Just pretty good.
