The day has finally arrived. The NBA schedule was unveiled today. Without further ado I give you the schedule of the 2014-15 Dallas Mavericks.
Mavs Schedule
Some Highlights:
The Mavs open where they finished last year, playing the defending champion Spurs on their ring night on Oct. 28 on TNT. They will first host the Spurs on Dec. 20 and then play two straight against them on March 24 and 27.
The home opener will be Oct. 30 against Utah. Not exactly the sexiest matchup.
Chandler Parsons will make his return to Houston on Nov. 22, in a game that is oddly not nationally televised.
Tyson Chandler and Raymond Felton go back to New York to face the Knicks on Dec. 16. ESPN will televise that game.
The Mavs face LeBron James, Kevin Love and the Cavs on Jan. 4 in Cleveland and Mar. 10 at the AAC.
The Mavs will be in Memphis on MLK Day, Jan. 19 for a 4:00 matinee tilt.
Jameer Nelson returns to Orlando on Jan. 31.
There will be an eight day all-star break which will end with the Mavericks hosting OKC on Feb. 19.
The regular season will conclude on April 15 with the Mavs hosting Portland in a game sure to have playoff implications of some sort.
In all the Mavs will have 18 games on national TV with 7 on ESPN, 4 on TNT and 7 on NBATV.

Felton Suspended 4 Games
New Mavericks point guard Raymond Felton has been suspended four games by the league for pleading guilty to gun charges in New York last year while a member of the Knicks. Felton, who was acquired by the Mavs in the Tyson Chandler trade, avoided jail time with his guilty plea but was ordered to pay a $5,000 fine and serve 500 hours of community service.
Marc Cuban and Felton released the following statements today:
Cuban
"Today we were made aware of Raymond Felton's suspension. We also learned that Raymond will be permitted to complete his community service outside the state of New York. The Mavericks are working with Raymond and the court to develop a community service program that will have a positive and lasting impact on North Texas."
Felton
"I demonstrated poor judgment and I take full responsibility for my actions. Moving forward I'm eager to get to Dallas, to start fresh and make a positive impact in the Dallas metropolitan area."
