Jazz-Mavericks Preview

By MATT BEARDMORE
Posted Mar 23 2013 12:30PM

The Dallas Mavericks are slowly climbing back into the Western Conference playoff picture.

The Utah Jazz are aiding that ascent.

Dallas tries to Utah for ninth place in the West on Sunday night when the Jazz try to prevent their first nine-game road skid in 31 seasons.

The Mavericks (33-36), who are tied with Portland, have split their last six games since a 4-0 run, but they've moved with one game of the Jazz (34-35), who have dropped three straight and 11 of 14.

Dallas still has work to do to extend its playoff streak to 13 - it is 2 1/2 games behind the eighth-place Los Angeles Lakers - but a 104-94 victory over Boston on Friday was a step in the right direction after opening its season-high six-game homestand with a 113-96 loss to Brooklyn on Wednesday.

"It's good. Any win is good right now," said forward Shawn Marion, who had 11 points and 13 rebounds after missing eight games with a strained left calf. "You know, we're just trying to gradually get to that .500 mark right now. We've got to keep taking these steps in that direction, and if we can knock down this homestand it can be a good thing for us."

The Mavericks have lost twice in Salt Lake City this season - 113-94 on Oct. 31 and 100-94 on Jan. 7 - but they've owned the Jazz in Dallas, winning four straight and 18 of the last 21 regular-season matchups.

That's bad news for a Utah team riding its worst road losing streak since 2005. The Jazz will try to salvage the final game of their three-city Texas trip - and avoid a season high-tying fourth consecutive loss - after falling 104-97 in overtime to West-leading San Antonio on Friday.

"We played a tough team on their home floor and had a chance to win for the first time in a long time," said center Al Jefferson, who had 18 points and 13 rebounds for his third consecutive double-double. "The energy and the effort was there for all 48 minutes plus. If we continue to play the way we did tonight for the rest of these 12 games, we have a great chance."

The Jazz have to feel good about starting a stretch of eight of 10 at home on Monday, but they're in danger of dropping nine straight outside Salt Lake City for the first time since a 17-game skid spanning Nov. 21, 1981-Feb. 6, 1982.

Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki, who had a team-best 20 points on Jan. 7 after missing the previous matchup following knee surgery, is averaging 33.1 points and 8.0 rebounds in his last eight home games versus Utah. He finished with 40 points in the Jazz's last visit, a Mavericks 102-96 victory on March 3, 2012.

Nowitzki also scored 40 - matching a season high - in a 123-121 triple-overtime road loss on April 16 that ended Dallas' seven-game win streak between the teams.

Utah's current three-game run over the Mavericks is its longest since reeling off 12 straight victories from Feb. 15, 1997-Feb. 24, 2000.

James, Nowitzki lead Mavericks past Jazz, 113-108

DALLAS (AP) Mike James didn't play like a 37-year-old on his last legs in the NBA on Sunday night.

James scored a season-high 19 points, Dirk Nowitzki added 17 and the Dallas Mavericks beat the slumping Utah Jazz 113-108.

The journeyman point guard scored 12 points in the third quarter, including seven in a 20-2 run which bridged the third and fourth quarters.

"I'm like a little kid in the candy store," James said. "People don't understand how much fun I'm having out there."

The 11th-year point guard is probably enjoying himself more now considering he didn't even have an NBA job three months ago. James joined Dallas on a 10-day contract on Jan. 8, and the Mavericks signed him for the rest of season three weeks later.

Rick Carlisle inserted James into the starting lineup on March 6, and the Mavericks have gone 8-3 since then to get within two games of the Los Angeles Lakers for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference.

"Because people say I can't play this game anymore, I'm out there having a great time," said James, who has played with 10 different teams.

Vince Carter and Shawn Marion each had 15 as the Mavericks improved to 2-1 on a season-long six-game homestand. Dallas has gone 21-13 since dropping 10 games under .500 on Jan. 9.

"(This season) has been so up and down," Mavericks center Elton Brand said. "It's been a roller coaster."

Enes Kanter scored 17 points as the Jazz lost their ninth straight on the road, Utah's longest such skid since losing 17 in a row away from home during the 1981-82 season. The Jazz's last road win was Feb. 13 at Minnesota.

"We can't get the games back that we lost," Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin said. "We need to learn lessons from it. But we have to find a way to get better."

Dallas had a one-point edge at halftime and the teams exchanged the lead 12 times in the third. The game was tied at 69 midway through the third before Dallas surged ahead for good.

James hit a 3-pointer to put Dallas in front 74-69. He connected on two free throws and short jumper to close the third, stretching the Mavericks' lead to 83-71.

Carter made a difficult layup and Marion hit a free throw to cap the 20-2 run which gave Dallas an 89-71 advantage with 9:55 left.

The Mavericks led 104-87 with 3:12 left before the Jazz went on a 21-7 run over the next 3 minutes. Gordon Hayward's three-point play brought Utah to 111-108 with 7.3 seconds left.

James hit 7 of 10 shots from the floor, including three 3-pointers. Darren Collison had 13 points for the Dallas, which shot 54.3 percent from the field.

James fell just short of his first 20-game performance since Jan. 14, 2009 against the New York Knicks.

"Mike James played great," Brand said. "He's been very good since he's been here for us."

Utah's Paul Millsap had 15 points and nine rebounds, and Hayward chipped in with 13 points.

Utah has lost four in a row and 12 of 15 overall. The Jazz dropped two games behind the Lakers - and even with Dallas - for the last playoff spot in the conference.

"I think we're just losing focus," Kanter said. "We'll just have to work on it and stick together."

Al Jefferson scored 11 of his 15 points in the first quarter to help the Jazz take a 27-24 lead.

Mo Williams hit a 3-pointer and a 20-footer to start a 9-2 run that gave Utah a 42-35 advantage, its largest of the first half.

Late in the second quarter, Dallas took its first lead since early in the first half on Nowitzki's jumper over Jefferson. Nowitzki ended the first half with a fadeaway over Millsap, putting Dallas up 53-52 at halftime.

NOTES: Utah plays eight of its next 10 at home, starting Monday night against Philadelphia. . The Mavericks have won 19 of their last 22 against the Jazz in Dallas.

Notebook: Mavericks 113, Jazz 108

THE FACTS: Mike James paced seven Dallas Mavericks in double figures with a season-high 19 points in a 113-108 victory Sunday against the slumping Utah Jazz, whose nine-game road losing streak is their longest in 31 years. The 37-year-old journeyman, who signed with the Mavericks on Jan. 9, was 7-for-10 overall and 3-for-4 from downtown, adding five assists and three rebounds.

The Mavericks (34-36) caught the Jazz (34-36) in the standings and moved to within two games of the Los Angeles Lakers for the eighth playoff spot in the Western Conference. Dallas is 9-4 in the month of March and two games under .500 for the first time since Dec. 20 (12-14). Utah, which also had seven in double figures, has dropped four straight overall.

QUOTABLE: "Mike [James] played well. ... He has a great enthusiasm for the game. He competes. He's a competitor. We basically got him off the street in January."
-- Dallas coach Rick Carlisle.

THE STAT: Utah hasn't won away from home since Feb. 13 at Minnesota. It is the franchise's longest streak of road futility since a 17-game skid from Nov. 21, 1981-Feb. 6, 1982.

TURNING POINT: Dallas broke open a tight battle (seven ties and 23 lead changes) with a 20-2 run bridging the third and fourth quarters. The Jazz were just 1-for-11 from the field and committed five turnovers during that stretch, digging themselves an 89-71 hole with 9:55 to play.

QUOTABLE II: "We're going to lay everything out there for 12 games and see what happens."
-- Utah coach Tyrone Corbin.

HOT: James scored 12 points in the third quarter on 4-for-4 shooting, including two 3-pointers. ... Dallas forward Elton Brand was 5-for-5 from the field. ... The Mavericks were 28-for-33 at the free-throw line, led by reserves Vince Carter (8-for-8) and Darren Collison (11-for-13).

NOT: Al Jefferson scored 11 points on 4-for-5 shooting in the first quarter, but went 2-for-7 the rest of the game. He finished with just three rebounds, six below his season average and his fewest in any game since Feb. 9.

BAD MOVE: Dallas let down its guard after extending its lead to 98-77, allowing Utah to turn a blowout into a nail-biter. A three-point play by Gordon Hayward capped a 21-7 surge and got the Jazz to within 111-108 with 7.3 seconds left, but Collison knocked down two free throws.

QUOTABLE III: "We have to learn how to finish games. It wasn't fun at the end of the game. We have to be able to put them away not let them have hope and not give them an opportunity, but that's what we did tonight. The good thing is that we were able to finish it when we only played 46-47 minutes. This game is a 48-minute game and we shouldn't make the same mistakes again."
-- James.

FANTASY SPOTLIGHT: Coming off a double-double in Friday's win against Boston, Mavs forward Shawn Marion tallied 15 points, six rebounds, three assists and three steals and was 6-for-8. Marion had missed the previous eight games with a strained left calf.

NOTABLE: The Jazz swept the first two meetings this season in Salt Lake City. ... The Mavericks are 17-3 when they shoot 50 percent or better (54.3). ... Dirk Nowitzki scored 17 and needs four points to pass Patrick Ewing (24,815) for 17th place on the NBA's all-time scoring list. ... Enes Kanter led the Jazz with 17 points off the bench. ... It was the fourth time this season the Mavericks had seven players in double digits. They had no such games last season. ... Brand's blocked shot in the fourth quarter was the 1,700th of his career, making him just the 24th player in NBA history to reach that milestone.

UP NEXT: For the Mavericks, Tuesday vs. L.A. Clippers, Thursday vs. Indiana, Saturday vs. Chicago. For the Jazz, Monday vs. Philadelphia, Wednesday vs. Phoenix, Friday @ Portland.
