We're back here, happy Monday.

Gotta finish out the rest of the Western Conference here.

And let's get right to it with the Dallas Mavericks.

They sit at 13 and 11, 4 and 2 in their last 6.

0.2 net rating is 16th in the NBA, 13th ranked offense,

18th ranked defense that's fallen a bit after some tougher performances.

Lately they were in the top 15.

Still only a project for 34 wins, although a lot of that is based on the preseason projection,

which would play some tide for 12th.

And it gave only 3% chance of making the playoffs, despite the positive net rating.

So far on the season, catch you up a little bit on some injury news here.

Dennis Smith Jr. has missed the last two with a wrist issue and remains doubtful for Monday.

And Maxi Kleba has been missing some time as well.

These fallin off a little bit from 3, and after a good, sorry, down about 30% there.

They have been outstanding at home, but getting smacked on the road and no more outstanding

than in Luca Dantres' personal 11-0 run in their win over the rockets over the weekend.

Yeah, actually, first I want to say the numbers because you don't get to say these very often.

Dallas is 11 and 2 at home and 2 and 9 on the road.

That's pretty ridiculous.

And that disparity is only probably going to grow.

They have Orlando and Atlanta on Monday and Wednesday at home, and then they have Phoenix

on the road so the match should probably split it back the other way.
