Mavs rank 26 at 55.1 points per game allowed (last 3 games 64 ppg). Last year was 51 ppg, so hopefully it gets better? With Lively improving throughout the year.
The only teams avg worse currently are Wizards, Blazers, Suns, Pacers.

Truth.
Some of it is the three-quarters of low-effort defense. Maybe if we played as hard all game as we do in the fourth, we'd be 20th or even 15th, but I am still concerned. We give up a lot of layups and dunks.
