Nets-Mavericks Preview

By JORDAN GARRETSON
Posted Mar 20 2013 12:51AM

Still looking to improve their playoff seeding, the Brooklyn Nets hope their recent road success will stay with them as they continue their lengthy trip.

The Dallas Mavericks are simply trying to keep their streak of consecutive postseason appearances alive, but time is running out.

After opening a season-high eight-game road trip with a win, the Nets try to avenge a home loss to the Mavericks from earlier this month Wednesday night.

Brooklyn's 17-day trip started well with an easy 119-82 victory over Detroit on Monday. The Nets (39-28) are one game back of New York for first place in the Atlantic Division and the third spot in the Eastern Conference, a position they could improve upon during the trip considering their road play.

They've won six of eight road contests while holding opponents to 89.6 points per game over that stretch.

"It is hard to be critical of anything," coach P.J. Carlesimo said after his team led the Pistons by as many as 43. "I thought we were very focused and we played very well."

Deron Williams also continued his recent surge with 31 points and five assists in 28 minutes. Williams, averaging 18.2 points and 42.9 percent shooting on the season, is at 26.0 points on 50.5 percent over his last six games. He's also knocking down 44.0 percent of his 3-pointers (22 of 50) over the same stretch.

"He's the brain of our offense, so it is always good when he gets it going," Reggie Evans said. "It doesn't matter if he's shooting it or passing it. He's feeling really good right now."

The Nets will likely need Williams to be better than he was in the season's first meeting with the Mavericks, a 98-90 loss on March 1. He scored 24 but was 8 of 18 from the field and matched a season high with seven turnovers as Brooklyn lost for the sixth time in the last seven meetings.

The victory over the Nets started a 7-3 stretch for Dallas (32-35), which still has plenty of work to do if it wants to extend its playoff streak to 13 consecutive seasons. The Mavericks are three games back of the eighth-place Los Angeles Lakers and two behind ninth-place Utah.

"We've been bouncing back all year," coach Rick Carlisle said after his team recorded its highest point total of the season in Monday's 127-113 win at Atlanta. "We've had a lot of opportunities to do that, unfortunately. We've got 15 (games) left and we're going to throw the kitchen sink at all 15."

Dirk Nowitzki continues to look more like his usual self, averaging 18.5 points on 50.9 percent shooting - including a 13-of-26 mark from 3-point range - over his last eight games. Nowitzki staying in a rhythm is especially crucial with Shawn Marion (11.7 ppg) still sidelined with a strained left calf. Marion has missed seven games in a row.

Vince Carter and Nowitzki each scored 20 points at Brooklyn earlier this month.

Brook Lopez, who had 19 points for the Nets, is averaging 26.3 points on 61.4 percent shooting in four games against Dallas since 2010-11 - his third-highest scoring title against any opponent.

Lopez, Williams lead Nets past Mavericks 113-96

DALLAS (AP) Brook Lopez is just like Deron Williams. He enjoys visiting Dallas, too.

Lopez scored 38 points and Williams had 31 in his first visit since spurning his hometown team in free agency, leading the Brooklyn Nets past the Mavericks 113-96 on Wednesday night.

Williams scored 26 in the second half, repeatedly hitting shots and occasionally assisting on baskets by Lopez to prevent a Dallas rally in the fourth quarter.

Lopez matched the 38 points he scored in one of the five games he played last season, when the Nets snapped a 12-game losing streak in Dallas. Both times, he finished one point shy of his career high from two years ago against Detroit.

"The team played well in both games," Lopez said with a laugh. "I think that's the correlation. It just depends on who's hot. We have so many options on this team."

Williams and Lopez combined for a defining play midway through a fourth quarter full of big shots from both teams when Lopez blocked a shot and Williams hit a fadeaway jumper on the baseline after dribbling the length of the court. Williams ran to his bench with a big smile after Dallas called timeout trailing 97-88.

The Mavericks, who pulled within three twice during a back-and-forth quarter, got no closer than six after that.

"When you're feeling good and feel like you can't miss, it's a good feeling," said Williams, who shot 11 of 18 in the second half at one of his favorite arenas. "I looked over at my bench and saw the excitement. It's a big win for us. It's a big win no matter what."

Dirk Nowitzki led Dallas with 16 points and had a team-high six rebounds compared to 22 boards for Reggie Evans of the Nets, who outrebounded the Mavericks 45-34.

The Nets improved to 2-0 on a season-high, eight-game road trip that now makes five straight stops out West. Brooklyn is two road wins shy of the franchise record of 20.

The Mavericks, who fell 3 1/2 games behind the Los Angeles Lakers for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference, lost the opener of a six-game homestand as they try to keep a 12-year postseason streak alive.

"They had two guys who had great games and we didn't do a good job there," Dallas coach Rick Carlisle said. "It's a bad result for us."

Lopez, who set a season high for points, and Williams led a third-quarter run that put Brooklyn ahead for good. Lopez did most of his scoring inside but had a 12-foot bank shot and another jumper from just inside the 3-point line as the Nets built a 10-point lead.

Lopez, who also had 11 rebounds, was 15 of 22 from the field and 8 of 10 from the line.

Williams scored seven of nine Brooklyn points to start the third quarter, and Lopez had the other two. They combined to go 11 of 12 from the field in the third, and the only miss was a desperation heave from beyond halfcourt by Williams at the end of the quarter.

Williams even got into the act on the defensive end, taking a charge from O.J. Mayo on a fast break with the Mavericks trying to stop Brooklyn's key third-quarter run.

"In the first half we kind of held him under control and then he knocked down a jumper and he was aggressive," Dallas forward Elton Brand said. "You could see it in his eyes. He was going to shoot it no matter what. We all know about free agency and our fans and us recruiting him. We knew he wanted to play well here."

Williams, who grew up in the Dallas area, got a smattering of boos during introductions and even fewer the first time he touched the ball. It wasn't his first game against Dallas since last summer. The Mavericks started March - their best month of the season by far - with a 98-90 win in Brooklyn.

Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, who infamously attended a "Shark Tank" taping instead of joining the Dallas contingent when free agency opened, intentionally stayed away from Brooklyn when the Mavericks visited. He still wasn't interested in Williams talk Wednesday.

"That's old, old, old, old news," Cuban said before the game.

Nets coach P.J. Carlesimo said he didn't know if Williams was a little extra motivated against the team he turned down so he could move to Brooklyn from New Jersey with the Nets.

"But I'm sure he understands that you're not going to expect intelligent statements from Mark, anyhow," Carlesimo said.

The Nets were actually better without Williams in the first half. While he was sitting to start the second quarter, Brooklyn went on an 18-6 run for a 40-38 lead.

Andray Blatche scored 14 in the second quarter for Brooklyn on 6-of-6 shooting, and not all of them were easy. He hit three long jumpers, two of them over Nowitzki.

NOTES: Nowitzki surpassed the 9,000-rebound mark and became the 10th NBA player with at least 24,000 points and 9,000 boards. ... Mavericks F Shawn Marion missed his eighth straight game with a left calf strain. ... Nets F Kris Humphries was a game-time scratch with a bad back. It was the eighth straight game on the bench for the former Maverick. ... The Mavericks spread the scoring wealth in the first half. Nowitzki, Chris Kaman and Mike James led with six points apiece, while Jae Crowder and Brandan Wright each had five.

Notebook: Nets 113, Mavericks 96

Dave Ivey, for NBA.com

THE FACTS: Brook Lopez might enjoy playing in Dallas even more than Deron Williams, who grew up in the area. Lopez racked up a season-high 38 points and 11 rebounds and Williams scored 31 points Wednesday as the Brooklyn Nets overpowered the Dallas Mavericks 113-96.

Lopez was 15-for-22 and matched his point total from his last game at the American Airlines Center on Feb. 28, 2012. Williams, who played high school basketball in the Dallas suburb The Colony, did most of his damage in the second half with 26 points on 11-for-18 shooting. Reggie Evans added 22 rebounds for Brooklyn (40-28), who outscored the Mavericks 52-34 in the paint and outrebounded them by 11.

It was a tough start to a six-game homestand for the Mavericks (32-36), who went cold in the fourth quarter and never had an answer for Lopez and Andray Blatche (14 points) inside. Dirk Nowitzki led four Dallas starters in double figures with 16 points.

QUOTABLE: "It was a great win. ... Brook likes the building, evidently. Deron was out of his mind ... A lot of guys played very, very well for us."

--Nets coach P.J. Carlesimo

THE STAT: When Nowitzki grabbed his fourth rebound of the game in the fourth quarter, he became just the 10th player in NBA history with 24,000 points and 9,000 boards. He joined Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Elvin Hayes, Moses Malone, Karl Malone, Shaquille O'Neal, Hakeem Olajuwon, Patrick Ewing and Kevin Garnett.

TURNING POINT: The lead changed hands for the 12th and final time on a three-point play by Williams that put Brooklyn up 61-59 early in the third quarter. The Nets' next two possessions also resulted in and-one layups by Gerald Wallace and Lopez. Brooklyn shot 68.4 percent (13-for-19) in the third quarter. Dallas was 11-for-17 in the period, but none of those shots were by Nowitzki and the Mavs also committed six of their 11 turnovers in the third.

QUOTABLE II: "They had two guys that had great games and we didn't do a good job there. It's a bad result for us. ... This is an ongoing challenge for us, being able to keep teams at or under 100. We've got to keep going and keep working on it."

--Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle

QUOTABLE III: "When you're feeling good, you feel like you can't miss. It's a good feeling. I looked over at my bench and saw the excitement. This was a big win for us, in my hometown or whatnot, this was a big win no matter what."

--Deron Williams

HOT: Blatche was 6-for-6 in the first half. Nowitzki finished 8-for-10. Dallas point guard Mike James (12 points) was 4-for-8 from 3-point range and has made at least one trey in 11 straight games.

NOT: Mavericks leading scorer O.J. Mayo failed to reach double digits for the third time in seven games, finishing with nine points and four turnovers.

INSIDE THE ARENA: The AAC crowd greeted Williams with mostly boos. He was courted by the Mavericks during free agency last summer before re-signing with the Nets.

NOTABLE: Mavericks forward Shawn Marion (strained left calf) and Nets forward Kris Humphries (tight lower back) both missed their eighth straight games. ... Dallas lost for just the third time this year when shooting 50 percent or better (16-3). ... Brooklyn improved to 24-4 against teams with a record below .500. ... This was the Nets' 18th road victory, their most since 2005-06. ... Brooklyn has tallied more defensive rebounds than its opponents in eight straight games. ... Wallace matched his season high with five steals (three times). ... Mavericks guard Rodrigue Beaubois had surgery to repair a fractured bone in his left hand (second metacarpal). There is no timetable for his return. ... Brooklyn and Dallas split the season series.

UP NEXT: For the Mavericks, Friday vs. Boston, Sunday vs. Utah, Tuesday vs. L.A. Clippers. For the Nets, Saturday @ L.A. Clippers, Sunday @ Phoenix, Wednesday @ Portland.
