The Dallas Mavericks have defied expectations this season, with their impressive run putting them just three wins away from the NBA Finals. What’s even more surprising is that Draymond Green, a four-time NBA champion, had already pegged them as the team to beat even before the Western Conference Finals began.
Green expressed his admiration for the Mavericks, citing their strong roster and cohesive play as reasons for his confidence in their success. Despite some early struggles, including a questionable signing and Luka Doncic’s injury, the Mavericks have found their groove and are now a force to be reckoned with.
With Doncic and Kyrie Irving leading the charge as legitimate No. 1 options, the Mavericks have shown a balance of offense and defense that has propelled them through the playoffs. While concerns about their offense being stagnant at times linger, their ability to adapt and overcome challenges has been commendable.
As they face off against the tough Minnesota Timberwolves in the next round, the Mavericks will need to continue their strong play to secure a spot in the NBA Finals. But with Green’s vote of confidence and their impressive performance so far, the Mavericks are proving that they are a team to watch out for in the postseason.
