I think the Mavs' offensive rhythm was impacted quite a bit by Orlando's defense
Indeed... their D is very good. Isaac is in the early conv for DPOY and ORL is one of two teams to hold teams to under 100 PPG on the season (Utah).
I still don't think that the Mav's D is setup to defend good big scorers who are versatile. We have given up big scoring games (and above their average ppg) to Milsap/AD/Lebron/Love and now Gordon/Vucevic, and Favors was tearing us up in limited minutes. Interior D remains a major concern. Needs more work!
