Of the many comparisons between the 21 year vet Dirk Nowitzki and the new rookie sensation Luka Doncic, one is seldom acknowledged: they are both good for a laugh.

At the All Star Break, let’s look at where the Mavs are, where they’ve been, and where they’re going.

A report has surfaced saying the Mavs will prioritize Magic’s Nikola Vucevic this summer. Will the Mavs try and make a Euro Big 3 going into next season?

The peaks and valleys of an NBA season are as unpredictable as a dice role. The Mavericks have exploited this thesis to an almost confusing degree.

Dirk doesn’t want to go out like Kobe, with a gaudy farewell tour of the NBA. It’s not his style. But he’s getting one anyway because we love Dirk.

The Mavs have lost their swagger, which is disheartening considering the decline has coincided with the return of future Hall-of-Famer Dirk Nowitzki. Instances such as these tend to sway my memory to a fonder time.

Having gone to the game last night, there were some observations I made that show both where this team is and where it’s going. Let’s get into it.

'Twas the week before Mavs-mas, when all through the gym Not a Mavs Man was stirring, not even a limb...

Dirk is finally ready to kick off his 21st season with HIS Dallas Mavericks and he’ll do it away from the AAC against the Suns. But what does Dirk’s return mean for his team that has been red hot without him?

Doncics' incredible rookie season can be directly attributed to his previous professional experience. He continues an obscure tradition of talented overseas players that began their professional careers while teenagers.
