One wrong take here: PJ has been a monster on the defense in Dallas, they even gave him the PJail nickname lmao

I agreed with everything until you said that PJ wasn't a stand out defensively, the guy has been amazing on that end, if he played like he has played in Dallas this whole season he would be in an all defensive team

"PJ IS NO DEFENSIVE STANDOUT" is wild.

NICO DID MORE FOR LUKA IN 2 YEARS THAN DONNIE DID FOR DIRK IN 15!!!😤

PJ has been our best defender wym the upgrade is lateral defensively 😂😂😂

you're definitely wrong about pj he's literally been elite defensively all defense level

Great video! I think you sold PJ a bit short tho. He's up there with DJJ as our best perimeter and definitely the most versatile. The dude guards 1-5. There's a reason his nickname is PJail.

Nico is exec of the year he’s done an unbelievable job in reshaping the roster to build a true title contender around with some small moves that have made a huge difference

Exum is by far the best redemption story in sports history.

Road to the Finals storylines:

But can the mavs make a Cinderella story .

Overall, Mavs is around 18th to 19th in defensive rating this season. After the trade deadline? They sky rocketed top like top 7. Last 10 games? They're 2nd (or 3rd since they really close with Magic) in defensive rating. And this season, they did not fall lower than 8th seed and they are poised to have 50wins this season, though as of this writing they have like 4 games remaining (Hornets, Heat, Pistons, OKC).

The Mavs definitely won the trade deadline. Shout out to Jason Kidd for integrating all of these guys and having them playing their best ball at the right time.

the Mavs didn't give up all their future pick tho right? It's pick swaps so its trading down draft spot

and youtuber sporting logically is hating on this Dallas move so baaad

donte divincenzo has been straight balling the 2nd half of the season.... Knicks may have unlocked this dude like they did Brunson

Damn took you this long to notice the Mavs impact. Lol

The Mavs been a top 10 defense since the middle of February. Wym by you can’t call them one of the best defensive teams? 2 different guys in your lineup is a whole change

Luka: cause what im bout to do to bob? Doodlebob.

from play-in contender to guarantied 5th seed ...
