Shoot, Vegas had the Mavs as a 7.0 pt favorite.It's the 5th game in 9 days, they're missing 4 starters, and their ideal starting lineup has literally never played together. I'd be surprised if they didn't have chemistry and effort problems.
The Mavs have some serious soul searching to do IMO. Don't get me wrong, 8-8 is no reason to panic, but their poor and inconsistent effort and on-court chemistry is concerning. Laying way too many total duds this year when the other teams are facing the same difficult circumstances.
