NBA Obsessed takes you into the hit and run game of NBA Basketball.
It came out during an interview with Rick Carlisle, the Dallas Mavericks are better. Now if you look at the Western Conference of the National Basketball Association there are 3 super teams and the rest is wide open. The super teams would be the Los Angeles Lakers, the Denver Nuggets, and the San Antonio Spurs. After that the West is wide open, with even the rotten teams improving themselves.
The Dallas Mavericks have added Shawn Marion, Drew Gooden, and Tim Thomas to a 6th place team. That is three quality players that will add shooting, scoring, size, and rebounding. Each of those players has missing parts to their games, but put the 3 together and you have an amazing set of situational type players.
So what does Rick Carlisle, the coach of the Dallas Mavericks think of all this?
What about the roster changes of the off-season? What do the incoming players bring to the table?
I like the moves we’ve made. We’ve acquired competitive guys. I like our chemistry. I think the pieces we added fit. The personalities of the new guys complement our nucleus. And I really believe the abilities of our new guys complement the guys that we have. We’re more athletic. We’ve got more experience.

Rick is a coach that holds you accountable and often puts you in situations to help the team with what you do best. Look for him to get the most out of the new players. He also is a strong believer in scripting plays and defending 1 on 1. It will be interesting to see how well the new players adapt to this type of coaching.
Dirk is yelling for the ball!
Rick is smart enough to know that Dirk Nowitzki is what makes the team go and all the new players will have to play to Dirk’s strength. Who knows, maybe the Mavericks could move into the group of super teams in the West!
