PRESEASON GAME 2: MIN vs. DAL| 11am CT

[Jym]

Do we have our lottery pick next year?

"DAL' 1st round pick to NYK protected for selections 1-10 in 2024 and 1-10 in 2025; if DAL has not conveyed a 1st round pick to NYK by 2025, then DAL will instead convey its 2025 2nd round pick to NYK"

The West is going to be brutal this year. Its not out of the question that the Mavs could be picking in the top 10 again.

38 and 44 got us the 10th pick last year. Teams below us like the Jazz, Rockets, Magic and Blazers should be better this year.  Maybe even the Spurs with Wemby. 

Luka and Kyrie will both miss games this year. Picking in the top 10 may come down to how many games he misses. 

How many of these teams do you see the Mavs having a better record than?

1. Nuggets
   
2. Suns
   
3. Warriors
   
4. Lakers
   
5. Grizzlies
   
6. T-Wolves
   
7. Clippers
   
8. Thunder
   
9. MAVS
   
10. Kings
    
11. Pelicans
    
12. Jazz
    
13. Rockets
    
14. Blazers
    
15. Spurs
    

I can see them being anywhere from 7 to 12.  This is going to be a long season.
