Game 48: Dallas Mavericks (26-21) vs Minnesota Timberwolves (33-14)

If they weren't so good, how have they been leading the West most of the season? I mean ultimately, their season will be determined how far they advance in the playoffs. They have dispelled the notion you can't play with two bigs in the starting lineup so far. And Edwards is clearly their franchise player.

A few weeks ago the Mavs beat them with Powell as the starting center. They have to prove it in the playoffs before I buy into the hype. As far as I can tell a team that can run the pick and roll and force Gobert/Towns to defend the perimeter is going to create a lot of trouble for them.
