Dallas Mavericks Season Outlook

The Dallas Maverick start the year trying to make up for a disappointing end to last season in the first round of the playoffs a the hands of Chris Paul and the Hornets. The Mavs had a very effective defense last year, which, coupled with one of the best power forwards in the game in Dirk Nowitzki, should be plenty for anyone with Mavs tickets. The Mavs took a big gamble in trading for Jason Kidd last season, and while it didn't really pan out the way they planned, there is still plenty of reason to believe Kidd could be a difference maker. It wont be easy in the ultra-competitive Western Conference, but the Mavs led the West the first half of last year and they have been looking pretty good so far.

The Mavs brought in new head Coach Rick Carlisle to replace Avery Johnson, who had failed to deliver the goods for three seasons. Former MVP Dirk Nowitzki will have to continue to be one of the league's best players if the Mavs are going to contend for the title this year. He has shown that he is a superb shot-creator, and his defense is also very good. John Howard will also need to step it up for the Mavs. His play has been a bit erratic, but if he can play to his abilities Dallas should be in good shape.

From the Wikipedia

The Dallas Mavericks franchise was first conceptualized by Don Carter and Norm Sonju in 1979, when they requested the right to bring an NBA franchise to Dallas, Texas. The last professional basketball team in Dallas had been the Dallas Chaparrals of the American Basketball Association, which moved to San Antonio in 1973 and became the San Antonio Spurs.

At the 1980 NBA All-Star Game, league owners voted to admit the new franchise, and the Mavericks paid a $12 million entry fee to join the NBA for the 1980-81 season. The team's name came from the 1957-1962 TV western Maverick, as James Garner played the namesake character, and was one of the original team owners.
