The NBA is really surging into the public eye and world news with the great success of their first In-Season tournament which concluded this past weekend. There was massive public skepticism based off what Adam Silver had proposed and laid out at the first glance, but it turned out to be great for the sport and basketball fans rejoiced. Now that that is over, we are locked in for the rest of the NBA regular season and seeding for the playoffs. The NBA Championship is still there for the taking, and we had a taste of what the atmosphere could possibly be like in this IST. Two teams who are riding some great waves of momentum this season are the Lakers and Mavericks. Both of which are playing great ball at the moment, and will be looking to continue their dominance in a rivalry matchup that spans decades. There will be most certainly a high level of basketball this upcoming Tuesday in Dallas, and you won’t want to miss betting on it at Betcoin.ag/sports.
Lakers @ Mavericks Preview and Analysis
The LA Lakers are the hottest team in the NBA right now and they have to find a way to continue making the right plays into the rest of the regular season. LeBron James and Anthony Davis are clicking on a different level right now and once they get truly going, will be unstoppable in the grand scheme of things. The role players are also picking up their pieces in the process, including Austin Reaves playing up to his contract level. The team dynamic is at an all-time high and there will be some definite comedowns. However, if they can keep their defensive consistency the same and rely on timely offensive scoring rather than consistency, they can dominate any team that comes in their path. They will have a tough challenge this week against the Mavericks away from home.
Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving always have the Lakers circled on their schedule and for good reason. Proving themselves and wanting to make sure they are still known as one of the best teams in the West after last season is crucial. There is nothing that these two want more than to beat teams like the Lakers and head into a possible playoff spot with momentum. Defensively, the Mavericks have gotten 100x better from last season with additions like Derrick Lively. This should translate this week and make things hard for the Lakers.
The Lakers are coming off a huge high with the Vegas IST Championship secured under their belt, and LeBron and company will look to continue the momentum into their regular season meetings. Look for them to make this close but the Mavericks pull away in the end.
