The Mavericks Remain Focused Despite Seeing Familiar Faces
The Mavericks (17-4) had practice today and a lengthy film session recapping what happened against Golden State, a victory leading to their 10th consecutive victory. The Mavericks continue their six-game home-stand on Thursday Night against the New Jersey Nets who are in the midst of a 5-game losing streak with an overall record of 6-16.
It's the second game where the Mavericks will be facing a team with a losing record, but the Mavericks understand they are the hunted. "Right now, with a winning streak, we know everybody is going to be coming after us trying to break it," said coach Rick Carlisle. "We've broken three winning streaks, ourselves, so we know about that motivation. It's about improving, being focused and concentrating. (The game against Golden State) was a good win, but there were areas where we lost focus and concentration and we just can't allow that to happen."
