It's just too early to proclaim either of these performance extremes as a primary personality defect or strength of the team. I do think it's fair to say that when the Mavs don't make an effort to pass the ball the offense suffers, but saying they suck at passing is another thing entirely.

At any rate, if you're looking for an area the Mavs have consistently struggled in, it's not passing. It's defensive rebounding.
Agreed, we are getting beaten on the boards.
