Phoenix may be more interested in preserving their draft position, and we get them twice. Portland was the one team that voted against the return proposal and may not even want to be there. Milwaukee is highly likely to take the last game off with nothing to play for. Utah has major chemistry issues. And the Kings are the Kings. Not a bad draw for a Dallas team hoping to move up.

If we win the H2H with Utah/Houston, we could easily go 7-1 and move past them.
That being said nobody has a damn clue how this will play-out. The results could be a complete mess. You only need 1-2 key players to have some 30 extra pounds of hardened fat on their body and the whole team falls apart.
But let´s not act like Luka ain´t a candidate for some extra weight either. How will Porzingis react after he had just gotten back into his groove after a long lay-off?
How will some teams, that have a great homecourt advantage, react to losing it? At least that shouldn´t be a concern for the Mavs.
