I guess I will scratch Dallas off as being a serious contender.
I like Dallas' makeup overall, but I thought of them as 'almost a contender' (though by my own definition, reaching the conference finals automatically pushes you into that class). I always felt like there was just something 'missing' from that team to call them true contenders. Now I really feel there is something missing - decent coaching.
Maybe Gulutzan has improved. I don't know. I guess we will see. I would bet against it at the moment, but I guess we will see what happens with them. It really does seem like a step in the wrong direction for them.
