On this episode, the guys recap the Mavs' 126-111 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers, dropping them to 1-3 in 'bubble' play. Both Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis proved that they can compete with the likes of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, but when it comes to the roster, the Mavs just simply don't have enough to be a 'great' team right now. 

Dalton and Matt discuss how that can be evaluated going into this upcoming offseason, and much, much more. Thanks for listening!
