RE:D-E-F-E-N-S-E!!!
The Mavs defense is much improved from last year, but this team is not a great defensive team. They can be a good defensive team (or good enough), and that would be enough to win a title. As long as they can continue to score in the 100's and hold their opponent's FG% below 41%, then they can beat anyteam in the league.
No, I don't think they can ever be a dominant defense (using MP's definition of a good defense), but all they need to be is good enough to win it all (especially with their offensive capability).
