Dallas Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle’s interview provided insight into what kind of growing expectations may be oriented around after a season opening win against the Washington Wizards.

He simply pointed out that minutes on the floor for big man Kristaps Porzingis are expected to hover around 30 per game. In addition, coach Carlisle cited the returning of Seth Curry to the organization as a “pretty big deal” because of his abilities as a shooter, and his play-making skills. Further questions involved Courtney Lee, another player obtained in the New York Knicks trade from last season, how coach Carlisle feels about “3 guards”, and the idea of keeping a family-vibe among the players.
