Two Weeks In: “Championship-Caliber” Mavs Sit Dead Last in the West

After trading Luka Dončić last February for what GM Nico Harrison called a “championship-caliber team,” the Mavericks are off to a nightmare start. At 2-6, Dallas ranks last in the NBA in both Offensive Rating (103.6) and PPG (107.3) after losing to the Pelicans tonight. Harrison’s defense-first vision hasn’t clicked — even with stars like Anthony Davis, Kyrie Irving, and Dereck Lively II sidelined, the offense has looked historically stagnant. Last season they finished 39-43 and barely reached the play-in. This season? They’re dead last in the West — and running out of excuses. #Dallas #Mavericks #NBA #NicoHarrison #Lakers #LukaDoncic #NBANews #Basketball
