Dallas Mavericks and Stars on the Brink of Playoff Triumph: Could This Be the End of a 21-Year Drought?
The Mavericks and Stars have not won a playoff series in the same season since 2003. This year, the Mavericks finished fifth in the Western Conference and will take on the Los Angeles Clippers in the first round. On the other hand, the Stars won the Western Conference and will play either the Los Angeles Kings or the Vegas Golden Knights in Round 1.
Chris Arnold, an emcee at American Airlines Center and host on 105.3 The Fan, and Gavin Spittle, brand manager at 105.3 The Fan and host of Spits and Suds podcast, joined Texas Wants to Know to discuss why this could be the first time in 21 years both teams get out of the first round.
Arnold and Spittle are optimistic about both teams’ potential success this year, citing strong performances throughout the regular season. They believe that if they can advance past their respective matchups, it would mark a significant milestone for Dallas sports fans who have not seen both teams win a playoff series in nearly two decades.
