Mavs Step Back Podcast

The Dallas Mavericks are humming at the perfect time with just six regular-season games to go until the NBA postseason. They've won 12 of their last 14 games, and they have the No. 1 defense in the league during that span. P.J. Washington has been one of the main reasons for Dallas' defensive uptick, and now that he's starting to see some 3s fall as well, the Mavs are looking like a team no one wants to face in the playoffs.

The Dallas Mavericks' four-game win streak was snapped on Thursday night, as they lost to the Oklahoma City Thunder on the road on what was also a second night of a back-to-back. Although Kyrie Irving and Daniel Gafford were stellar, the Mavs weren't able to overcome the absence of Luka Doncic, who missed the game due to hamstring soreness. With several days off before Sunday's afternoon game at home against the Denver Nuggets, the hope is that Doncic can return and help guide his team to a big win over his friend Nikola Jokic.
