Now the Mavs have answered those questions and enter the season in a similar spot as last year.

Bringing back the veteran core, the Mavs brought in two former champions, some youngsters and a Curry brother to help keep the Mavs contending in the West. Predictions are all over the place for the new-look Mavs, but I have my own predictions for this coming Mavs season.
