What do the Dallas Mavericks need to make the Playoffs?
The first goal of the Dallas Mavericks is to get into the West Play-In. In other words, finish in the top ten of the standings. One goal they would achieve today, but which is far from a guarantee: right now they are seventh but with barely a match up at 11, Los Angeles Lakers.
A more ambitious goal for Dallas is is in the top six and by doing so, qualify directly to the 1st Round of the Playoffs. This goal is not far away: they just appear half a match behind the sixth Golden State Warriors.
What seems more complicated is getting to the Top 4 and have home-field advantage in the 1st round of the postseason. Today they seem to two and a half matches from that place, into his hands Phoenix Sans.
Currently, the The Mavericks’ opponent in the Play-In would be the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo He gave a harsh response to the question about a possible trade to another NBA club:
“I’m here. Don’t ask me that question. It’s disrespectful to me and my teammates. I wear this jersey every day.
To say I don’t want to be here is disrespectful to the organization, the coaching staff, myself and everyone who worked hard to get me on the field. Don’t ask me this question. I am her. I’m going out in this uniform. And as long as I’m here, I’ll give it my all until the last second of the match.”
On the night of December 27-28, Antetokounmpo returned to the field after his calf muscle injury and became the most productive player of the game with the Chicago Bulls – 112:103.
