Sixty games into the NBA season, it’s become clear that the Mavericks are, at the least, going to be playing beyond the end of the 82-game grind.

As he made the walk from the American Airlines Center loading dock toward the locker rooms, Josh Green had a hard time not making the right turn into the Mavericks’ inner sanctum like he’d done hundreds of times before. “Extremely weird walking by the locker room and going to the away locker room,” Green said.
