The road to 50: It is done

[dirkfansince1998]

I think it was their losing streak in January right after Lively broke his nose and Kyrie hurt his thumb that I thought this was a lost season due to injuries. Exum also was out during that stretch too. 

Mavs were 26-23 at that point having blown so many leads and lost 7 of their last 9. Since then they have gone 24-7 and have looked dominant. And 5 of those 7 losses happened in a single week. 

What a weird season.

In late january/early february it was almost a copy of the previous season. Same record. Same tendency. But this time they nailed the desperation moves and turned things around.
