In three seasons under Jason Kidd and Nico Harrison, Dallas has made two postseasons, won four series and has a postseason record of 17-13.
Kidd, the 10th coach in franchise history, now is the only Dallas coach with multiple conference finals berths.
After the 2010-2011 season NBA championship, the only one in franchise history, the ensuing ten seasons under the regime of GM Donnie Nelson and coach Rick Carlisle produced six playoff appearances, zero series wins and a postseason record of 10-24. Only five players remain from the 2022 WCF Mavericks team: Luka Doncic, Josh Green, Tim Hardaway Jr., Maxi Kleber and Dwight Powell.brought Doncic a co-star, but the Mavericks missed the playoffs, going only 5-11 in the games the duo played together.In his exit interview after what he termed that “disappointing” season, Harrison said: “When you have that talented of two players, I think they work together. I really think it’s the players around them.
A culture that now has Dallas back in the conference finals. A culture that has Kidd’s fingerprints all over it, starting with his being drafted by the franchise No. 2 overall in 1993, and his returning to be the stabilizing veteran point guard of the 2011 championship run.
