The Hall of Famer has been showing the Mavericks a lot of love in the preseason
Tracy McGrady has been showing the Dallas Mavericks a lot of love in the preseason. After picking Luka Doncic to win MVP on his Instagram, he's now doubled down on his prediction for the 2024-25 NBA championship."I can't see the Celtics doing it again," McGrady said. "F--- it, man, Luka gon' sweep the board... My preseason pick for NBA champ is gonna be the Dallas Mavericks. Dallas made it there last year, I got Luka being the regular season MVP...
The Hall of Famer believes last year's trip to The Finals was just the beginning for Dallas. They made a surprise run before losing to the Celtics in five games but proved the duo of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving is good enough to get them there. With some extra help this offseason, adding Klay Thompson and Naji Marshall, there's good reason to believe the Mavs can get back there again.
Dallas will likely have to face the Oklahoma City Thunder once again if they want to return to the Finals, though. The Thunder are the heavy favorites to win the Western Conference this season, adding Isaiah Hartenstein and Alex Caruso to the West's top seed last year. The Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves are seen in that same upper echelon with the Thunder and Mavericks, who seem to be the consensus four best teams in the West.
