GAME THREAD: Dallas Mavericks vs. Atlanta Hawks

WHO: Dallas Mavericks vs. Atlanta Hawks

WHAT: THE REGULAR SEASON HAS ARRIVED!

WHERE: American Airlines Center, Dallas, TX

WHEN: 7:30 p.m. Central

HOW: FSSW or NBA League Pass

THE STORY: We made it y’all! We made it through the long offseason, the long preseason, and finally, opening day is here.

Let’s all be real: the Mavericks are not expected to be good. But they will be fun! Dennis Smith Jr.! Dirk’s 20th season! Can Harrison Barnes take another step? Can Yogi Ferrell build on his successful 10-day contract to All-Rookie year campaign? So many great storylines to follow on this team this year, and I for one am excited regardless of their chances to make the playoffs in a crowded Western Conference.

While you wait, check out Dalton on tonight’s game and Josh on things we learned in the preseason. And don’t forget to hit up Dan’s preview of EVERY SINGLE GAME this season.

Let’s. Go. Mavs.
