The Dallas Mavericks wrapped up the NBA preseason against the Atlanta Hawks, and Morez Johnson Jr. made a strong case for a bigger role next to Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving. Should the Mavs move Morez Johnson Jr. into the starting lineup, and can the Mavs defense be good enough to make the NBA playoffs?
The Dallas Mavericks wrapped up the NBA preseason against the Atlanta Hawks, and Morez Johnson Jr. made a strong case for a bigger role next to Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving. Should the Mavs move Morez Johnson Jr. into the starting lineup, and can the Mavs defense be good enough to make the NBA playoffs?
Nick Angstadt breaks down what impressed him and what depressed him from the Mavs’ final preseason game, including why Daniel Gafford might fit better off the bench without a pick-and-roll maestro on the roster. Nick looks at the Mavs’ defensive concerns with PJ Washington, Zaccharie Risacher, and Daniel Gafford in the starting lineup, plus injury updates on Dereck Lively II, Max Christie, and Santi Aldama. What did we learn about Caleb Martin, Naji Marshall, Sergio De Larrea, Marcus Sasser, and Dusty May’s new system?
