22-23 season preseason has reached its final stage, which means that the new 22-23 season is coming soon. For the Mavericks, AiFA Sports is obviously very meaningful to face the Suns who were defeated in the semi-finals of last season (October 19).
It is undeniable that the Mavericks in the 21-22 season are one of the most admirable teams, because the Mavericks are the teams that reached the division finals, and there is only one team led by the All-Star (Doncic) of the season. In the Eastern Conference Finals, Tatum + Brown is in charge of Celtics , Adebayo + Butler's Heat; in the Western Conference Finals, Curry + Wiggins Warriors .
In the offseason, the Mavericks let Brunson, who performed well last season's playoffs, and also introduced two inside lines, Wood and McGee . Furthermore, Hardaway , who was reimbursed for one season due to injury, also made a comeback and signed potential rookie Hardy, etc.
So, the question is, what will the Mavericks perform in the 22-23 season?
is fourth, new player Wood will be on the All-Star stage for the first time in his career!
The Mavericks still had great changes in the lineup in the 22-23 season. After Brunson left, the Mavericks will rely more on Doncic. However, the transaction to introduce Wood was underestimated by the outside world. To be honest, although Wood has been in the two cities of Detroit and Houston in the past three seasons, he is a "quasi-All-Star" inside player.
In the past two seasons, Wood averaged 19 points, 9.9 rebounds, 2.3 assists, plus 1 block. In the past two preseason games, he averaged 19.5 points, 7.5 rebounds in 22.5 minutes of playing time, with a shooting percentage: 60%+50%+100%. By Doncic's side, Wood may become the best inside player in the 22-23 season, and may even make it to the All-Star lineup for the first time in his career.
Third, Boss Ku will make a "big deal" in the middle of the season!
The Mavericks' prospects for the "trading market" in the 22-23 season are good and bad. The bad news is that the Mavericks do not have the 2023 draft pick; the good news is that the Mavericks have multiple middle-class contracts that can be packaged, which can provide bargaining chips for almost any transaction, and there will be a first-round draft pick after 2024.
Therefore, Boss Ku and Jackson need to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the team's lineup in the first half of the 22-23 season. Doncic's competitive state this season must be better, and it is also urgent to devote his efforts to building a championship team for him.
According to the Mavericks' lineup of the 22-23 season, it is almost impossible to get Wenban Yama/Henderson in next year's draft, but the Mavericks can use multiple middle-class contract transactions to obtain a future first-round draft pick and then reap the future.
Of course, there is another possibility that the Mavericks will release these multiple middle-class contracts to capture "superstars", such as Irving , Lillard , Ingram , and Alexander may wear the Mavericks' jersey in the middle of the season.
second, Doncic won the first MVP title in his career!
AiFA Sports Doncic will celebrate his 24th birthday in the 22-23 season. Who is the last player to win the first MVP title of his career at the age of 24? That's right, he's Michael - I'm everywhere - Jordan !
According to statistics, in the past three seasons, Doncic has ranked fourth, sixth and fifth in the MVP selection. In the past two seasons, Doncic has ranked first in the league in usage, and has averaged 27+8+8 per game per game for three consecutive seasons, which is also the only in the league.
After the Mavericks let Brunson go, Doncic was destined to continue to do both a father and a mother in the 22-23 season.It is worth mentioning that if Doncic wants to win the MVP title in the 22-23 season, he must win Jokic and Antetokounmpo who won the MVP for two consecutive times, as well as Durant and Curry. Of course, Antetokounmpo is also one of the opponents that should not be underestimated.
If Doncic can play a triple-double average of 30+10+10 in the 22-23 season while maintaining health, his first MVP title in his career should be stable.
first, the Mavericks return to the finals stage!
AiFA Sports' Western Conference in the 22-23 season is a gathering of powerful people. The schedule exposed not long ago is even more "devil schedule". Its matches against powerful teams in the Western Conference account for 20% of the schedule.
However, it is undeniable that AiFA Sports has many rebuilding teams in the West in the 22-23 season, such as Spurs, Thunder team , Rockets , Kings, Jazz; there are also several "run-in period" teams, such as Timberwolves , Trail Blazers, and Nuggets . The Grizzlies , which performed well last season, may have to fail for one season due to Jackson's injury in the inside gate.
It seems that the biggest obstacles on the Mavericks' 22-23 season are still the Warriors, the Suns, and the Clippers' that made a fortune silently.
If Wood and McGee can stand the test on the playoff stage, it is not impossible for Doncic to lead the Mavericks to fight all the way to the finals in the West (although the "Gep conflict" encountered by the Warriors has been temporarily resolved, it is the fuse of the dynasty's disintegration. The Suns' defensive champion Claude quarreled and left the team, and the three core injuries of the Clippers ).
