With the new NBA season around the corner, the Dallas Mavericks veterans welcomed their new players in style. During the media interaction, they gave every player a dare to follow. Luka Doncic led the way by asking his new ‘three and D’ guy, Grant Williams, to flex his biceps like Draymond Green after every question from the media.

Grant Williams, who does not back down from anything, did his dare in style, evoking a chaotic reaction from his fans. One fan wrote that Grant should not have played horse with Luka, for he would be losing it every time. While the other criticized Grant for wearing the No. 3 Jersey.

Did Luka intentionally poke the bear?

Grant Williams flexing his biceps in the media interaction may appear outwardly funny. Yet. it could even be a slight at Draymond Green and the Golden State Warriors. Luka Doncic’s Mavs, and Grant Williams’ former team Celtics, had suffered at the hands of the Warriors during the 2022 postseason. Draymond Green, who is known for mucking up the system, managed to get under the skin of the Celtics’ players in the finals and flabbergasted them.

If Luka and Grant are keeping the receipts of their Warriors encounters, this season will truly be a spicy one. With Grant coming to the Western Conference, he will encounter the Warriors more often than he has been facing them with the Celtics. This is going to be an absolute firecracker.

The Western Conference Picture.

Every team in the NBA that the Warriors had steamrolled in the past would like to stick it back to them if they see a weakness. Golden State has the same core group of talent. But other than Stephen Curry, both Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson post his injuries, look depleted. We could ascribe a similar situation to Kawhi and the Clippers, too. Even the Champion Nuggets are missing some key pieces like Bruce Brown.

Luka Doncic, who had defeated the Suns with a lot lesser talent, has more than a full house with him now. Kyrie, Grant Williams, and Seth Curry would lessen his scoring load. While Markieff Morris, Kleber, and Powell will defend and facilitate. With this group, Jason Kidd has a realistic chance at going for the title.

Unlike the East, the Western Conference looks very competitive and wide open. Will this be the year when the Mavericks dominate their postseason? Fun and exciting times ahead for the Maverick fans.
