The multi-billion dollar worth Dallas Mavericks is currently sitting in the 9th position in the Eastern Conference table with a 14-14 record after their latest defeat against the Cleveland Cavaliers. While it is still the early stages of the season and the Mavericks have plenty of games to improve their game, their deficiencies are prominent in their games. They arguably lack in rebounding, shot-making, rim protection, and the most striking one, their over-dependence on franchise cornerstone Luka Doncic. On top of that, their owner, Mark Cuban was also unable to help Doncic in any way in the off-season. Therefore, NBA fans have expressed their thoughts on social media regarding the current situation around the Mavs.

There is no doubt that Mark Cuban is one of the most well-known owners of a franchise in the league. However, the lack of effort from him and the Mavs front office to off-load the pressure from the Slovenian international’s shoulders is prominent in their games. Luka Doncic who is currently playing a record high of 37 minutes per game, probably needs some support on the court. But the Mavs front office didn’t acquire any big names except JaVale McGee and Christian Wood. In addition to that, they also lost their playmaker/scorer Jalen Brunson in return for nothing.
