2013 Dallas Mavericks Season Preview

The Dallas Mavericks in the offseason completely revamped there lineup.  While they have a lot of talent the main key for them is getting back the heart of soul of there team, Dirk Nowitzki as soon as possible.  He is suppose to be out for a few weeks but they need him in the lineup not only for his offensive skills but also for his veteran leadership.  Some of the new faces that they welcome to the team this year include; Darren Collison, OJ Mayo, Kris Kamen, Vince Carter, and Elton Brand.  With all this talent, if they are able to play together as a team they could be a force in the Western Conference.  There starting lineup should look like this:

  PG.  Darren Collison

  SG.  OJ Mayo

  SF.  Shawn Marion

  PF.  Dirk Nowitzi


  C. Chris Kaman

Sports Illustrated projects the Dallas Mavericks to finish 7th in the Western Conference.  While I think this is a very safe projection I would have to say that they could very well be a lot higher come the end of the season.  I believe that they projected them here mainly because of the fact that they have so many new pieces on there team.  With this being said I would say that they are a much better team then Grizzlies.  If they can all play as a team together, the rest of the teams in the Western Conference better beware of the Mavericks.
