I'm not saddened or surprised that the Mavs have had to rely on Dirk so heavily with Finley out. It's giving Dirk an opportunity to truly take over the reigns to this team. When Fin comes back, his 18 ppg will be welcome. His hitting open jumpers will be huge for the Mavs. And yes, it'll make the Mavs a better team and will probably make Dirk a bit more efficient. But tap the breaks on all the worrying just a bit. Much of the answers to the Mavs problems on offense is sitting in street clothes and should be healthy enough to play in 7-10 days.
