The 2 games w/Utah have been decidedly different. Christmas game was a foul fest w/55 fouls called/72FTA. The game ten days ago saw just 35 fouls/30 FTA. Mavs were 30-35 FT in 1st game 8-8 in 2nd (1-1 in 2nd half).
The officials tonight: James Capers, Michael Smith & Aaron Smith
A win tonight would put the Mavericks 15 games over 500 for the first time since the 2015 season when they went 50-32.

It's bonkers that the Mavs
Started +5
Then dropped games until they were -2
And are now +14 again
If we didn't have that stretch where we dropped 7 games in the standings, we'd be second place and 1 game behind the Suns for best in the west.
