8. Dallas Mavericks
Sometimes, this team is just, well, exquisite (pardon the snobbyness). Watching Jason Kidd run a fast break is still one of the most beautiful things in sports. Dirk Nowitzki is like an expert craftsman, and while Jason Terry is annoying in the same way Mo Williams is, his all-court game is criminally underrated.
But Dallas is also, well, predictable. Everything is pick-and-roll, pick-and-pop, pick-and-isolation to Dirk (okay, the last one isn't official NBA lingo, but I had to include it). They execute their plays so well, but they're still the same plays, and that can get old sometimes.
(Also, Rick Carlisle, can you please stop playing J.J. Barea? We want more Rodrigue Beaubois, aka Roddy Buckets. I mean, how many point guards can do this?
