However, this did not stop the Nets’ fans in trolling the 31-year-old DWill as “Wanted” posters of him were hung around the arena. Attempted Barea hero ball ended as poorly as you might think, despite his good game to that point. His hook shot cut the lead to eight with 1:52 remaining, but he was called for goaltending with 41 seconds to go, pushing Atlanta back up by 10. That summer they made another move that hurt them in the long-term by trading for Joe Johnson (a good player but who had a millstone of a contract that prevented the Nets from having salary cap space for the next three seasons) to again convince Williams to re-sign.

Game Recap: Warriors enact revenge against Milwaukee
Mayo was the only other player able to get anything up at all, and he went 0-for-6. ” Just , ain’t no man going to touch my head”. That also ended a 28-game overall winning streak by the Warriors , second-longest in National Basketball Association history.
“It makes ideal sense”, Dallas forward Chandler Parsons said. “As a result, he became one of the first players taller than 2.10 meters to sink more than 50 percent of his shots, at least 40 percent of his three-pointers and more than 90 percent of his free throws over the course of an entire season”. You can interpret him constantly playing through injury to be foolhardy, but whenever we discuss his tenure in New Jersey/Brooklyn, I feel that those should be brought up in his favor.
Miami, Washington State take postseason skids into Sun Bowl
It’s a place that Scott said he and the team is glad to be and an appropriate setting for the Canes during this bowl season. Washington State began the season ominously as they lost 24-17 as 31-point favorites at home to Portland State.
NEW ORLEANS – Anthony Davis had 28 points and 12 rebounds to lead New Orleans past Portland. Like I’ve said, it’s a dream come true. “It’s such a tremendous feat and such a tremendous individual”. “We struggled (Tuesday) night (in Toronto) and took a loss, and now we fly home for four hours and to sit on a back-to-back loss over the Christmas break would have been brutal”.
4 dead after tornadoes sweep through Texas
Among the victims was a 7-year-old boy who perished while riding in a auto that was swept up and tossed by storm winds. The tornadoes also killed six people in Tennessee and one other in Arkansas, bringing the three-state total to 17.
That all led to the extra five, which also went back and forth until the final possession, when Jack missed a jumper that Dallas rebounded to secure the win.
Dirk Nowitzki talked about how much it meant to him, after working so hard, so long to get it. The victory, not the milestone.
“But we found a way”.
While his production has dipped over the past several seasons, Nowitzki is still averaging 17.5 points and 7.0 rebounds per game.
Guard Wesley Matthews added 17 points, hitting two 3-pointers in overtime, and reserve forward Charlie Villanueva had 14. On the ensuing possession, Young blocked Barea’s fadeaway shot as time expired to force overtime. He also hit a go-ahead floater and converted the and-1 to put the Mavs up 108-105 with 12.4 seconds left.
Dallas beat the Nets 119-118 in overtime, on the strength of 32 points from Barea. Nowitzki entered Wednesday’s play in seventh place with 28,587 points, needing nine to overtake Shaq. Lopez was held to 13 points and was 6 of 15 from the field.
Cousins received some excellent support from Rajon Rondo, who scored 13 points and dished out 16 assists. Everybody got their monies worth on that one. I was proud of our team, the way we battled.
