Welcome back to The Only Mavericks podcast!

In this week’s episode, The Athletic’s Tim Cato, StrongSide contributor Austin Ngaruiya, and I share why we’re cautiously optimistic about Dallas following a win over Phoenix and a loss to Indiana. Then we turn our attention to a far less sunny topic: Tim Hardaway Jr., whose February swoon has us wondering how the Mavs should best address the slumping sharpshooter’s minutes and me comparing him to ex-Rangers reliever Aroldis Chapman.

Feel free to listen below, and if you’re so inclined, please subscribe and/or leave a review on iTunes or Spotify—turns out that stuff really does help podcasts out!

Happy listening, and we’ll talk to you next time!
