In their recent matchup against the New York Knicks, despite scoring an impressive 122 points and leading for almost four minutes, they fell short by seven points. Their offensive rating stood out at approximately 123 points per hundred possessions, but defensively they allowed nearly 119 points per hundred possessions – an area that could use tightening up.


The team's shooting has been effective with field goal percentages hovering around the mid-50s and three-point conversions at about 31 percent. They've also demonstrated strength in rebounding with over fifty rebounds in their past games and an assist-to-turnover ratio greater than two – signs of good ball movement and control.

However, turnovers have been a slight concern; averaging double digits in recent games could be an aspect for Coach Budenholzer to address before facing Dallas. Additionally, while bench contributions have been decent, there might be room for improvement to ensure depth in performance throughout the game.


The upcoming encounter promises to be thrilling as both teams bring their A-game to one of basketball's most iconic venues. Fans can expect high energy on both ends of the court with each team looking to assert dominance early on.
