Scoring milestone adds to the legend of Dirk Nowitzki
The Nets had six players in double figures, but it wasn’t enough offset Dallas, which also got 22 points from Nowitzki. The reason most people don’t play it is because if a ball goes into the corner, and a big guy who can’t guard goes out to guard the ball, the guy with the ball is going by him regardless of what defense you’re in. “The names he’s passed and continues to creep up on are the greatest players in the history of our game, but that’s part of the process of greatness”. He would later score Dallas’ final points in regulation, a driving layup down the middle of the lane that also drew a foul and a 108-105 lead with seconds remaining.

Thaddeus Young had a season-best 29 points for the Nets.
The best player of the game was J.J. Barea scoring hist career high 32 points and dishing out 11 dimes pushing the Mavericks to a 16-13 record and tied with the Los Angeles Clippers as the 4th best in the Western Conference. “I can just move forward”.
“I come in here with a bad haircut and a bad earring, and not knowing (the National Basketball Association game), and the first year all these ups and down and doubts creeping in, did you make the right decision”. I’ve been lucky. And we got the win.
Point guard Deron Williams was sidelined with a strained hamstring, sitting out what would have been his first game back in Brooklyn after the Nets bought out the final two seasons of his $98.5 million (Dh 362m) contract during the summer. Outside of the stats, though, the Mavs just appeared to be more tuned in to what was happening, playing with aggression and force on both ends of the floor – they set harder screens, ran through their sets quicker, and talked more on the defensive end. He has 15 double-doubles thus far, including Monday’s win over the Chicago Bulls and Wednesday night’s close loss to the Mavs.
Randy Foye scored 31 points to lead the Denver Nuggets over host Phoenix 104-96.
The Dallas Mavericks were able to hold on for a 119-118 overtime victory against the Brooklyn Nets despite being without starting point guard Deron Williams, who would have been making his return to Barclays for the first time as an opponent. “If we keep playing like we’ve been playing, we’re going to win more games”. I wonder whether we’ll see him venture to that area more often moving forward, especially now that Parsons is getting more chances as the ball-handler. Nowitzki scored 22, passing O’Neal on a second quarter jumper.
“But we found a way”.
But Williams, who was injured in Tuesday night’s loss in Toronto, never appeared.

Barea started the Mavericks scoring with one of his five 3-point shots on the night. A half season before that, he came to the Timberwolves Young following seven seasons with the 76ers, who drafted him 12th overall in the 2007 draft.
