Default GDT: Mavs vs Timberwolves 01/20/16 7:30pm CT

Scoring hasn't been much of a problem at home lately for the Dallas Mavericks, but their defense has slipped partially due to some lengthy games.

Facing the struggling Minnesota Timberwolves for the second time in two weeks could solve that.

The Mavericks go for an eighth win in 10 home games as they try to extend their winning streak over the Timberwolves on Wednesday night.

Dallas (24-19) is averaging 108.4 points while winning seven of its last nine home games after splitting the first 10 while scoring 99.6 per game.

The Mavericks, however, are surrendering an average of 113.0 points while winning two of their last three games. Each of those games has gone into overtime, including a 117-116 double-OT win over Sacramento on Jan. 5.

Dirk Nowitzki and Deron Williams prevented Dallas from going that far Monday, combining for 17 of its 20 points in overtime of a 118-113 win over Boston.

"I just dug deep. That was a gutsy win," said Nowitzki, who tied a season high with 31 points -- 21 after the third quarter -- and had 11 rebounds for his sixth double-double of the season.

Williams has been much more productive at home than on the road. He scored 20 points against the Celtics, giving him an average of 19.1 points over his last 10 home games compared to 8.4 in his past seven away.

Williams' struggled on the road at Minnesota on Jan. 10, totaling four points on 2-for-10 shooting. However, Nowitzki practically carried the Mavs to a 93-87 victory, scoring 29 points with seven rebounds while sinking 12 of 22 from the floor -- 4 of 7 from 3-point range.

"(Dirk) just makes the game so easy," Williams told the team's official website.

Dallas has won four straight meetings with the Timberwolves (13-30), holding them to 85.3 points per game and 20.5 percent shooting from beyond the arc over the last three.

Minnesota is doing little to inspire confidence it's capable of ending its woes. The Timberwolves are averaging 93.9 points while losing 14 of their last 16 games, and they've dropped a season-high seven straight on the road after a 114-99 defeat at New Orleans on Tuesday.

It's Minnesota's longest road losing streak since a 10-game skid from Nov. 30, 2014-Jan. 9, 2015.

Despite the Timberwolves occupying the Northwest Division cellar, Andrew Wiggins has been a bright spot with 24.3 points per game over the last seven. That includes 21 points with seven rebounds against the Mavs earlier this month after the second-year pro averaged 12.3 and 4.3 over his first three career matchups.

Rookie Karl-Anthony Towns wasn't very effective in his first meeting with Dallas, scoring 10 points with four rebounds. The No. 1 overall pick enters this one after putting up 20 points and pulling down 13 boards against the Pelicans.

Im sick of Dirk who is 37 years old having to constantly carry the team because we refuse to develop young players. It is going to kill us as a team when dirk retires. I feel so bad for dirk. He deserves to have a team competing for a title

...no Dirk? No problem... tonight, the Mavs win their 9th home game against the Tender-wool, especially thanks to a breakout game by Powell who scores a 20 point/10 rebound double-double...

Mavs - 120
Tender-wool - 108

I believe what Dirk deserves is to enjoy and have fun playing basketball. Unlike you know... that guy on his farewell tour. It's not like Dirk hasn't won a title that he should do like many others have tried.

There also aren't that many youngsters wearing Mavs uniform that need to be developed. If Powell would be able to hit his jumpers he would probably average a bit more minutes and let Dirk rest.

Honestly, I find it strange when someone feels bad for someone else who has numerous times said that he or she enjoys what they currently have. In the case of Dirk it is playing basketball.

And what's the alternative? Let Dirk rest, give young guns more time, be a lotto team that won't even compete for 8th seed and let Dirk retire early because playing is not fun anymore?

He took Dirk to dinner.

Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki will not play Wednesday night against the Timberwolves due to swelling in his right knee, coach Rick Carlisle told reporters. Guard Raymond Felton, who was hit in the eye late in Monday's win, is also out.

Tayshaun Prince actually could be a interesting look at trade wise. Primarily for the bench. But I like this roster already. Though if I had to choose. I'd ask if minny would take Felton's expiring or Devin for Prince. I would even consider Mejri. Being that it's the SG/SF defensive player that could help off the bench.

The wolves should go after Tom Thibodeau to coach up Wiggins and Towns. They could become a playoff team in a year or two with him coaching these young talented fellas

Buzzer beating 1st quarter basket by Wiggins to put the Wolves up by 10. Come on Chandler Parsons where art thou? I heard you play like a star when you play lottery bound teams like the wolves. Time to show up and take over!

Bro I hate Parsons also. His defense sucked as usual and just got picked off with under a minute to go. His game is pump fake pump fake flat shot 3 pointer. Sick of him. Would rather have Rudy Gay over him.

I actually considered Gay under my "breakdown" but I am still at 'meh'. His contract lasts 1 year longer than Parsons and I don't think these two are that far apart. Then again, Gay would fit very well into the small ball lineup that RC loves so much, and has some defense. Gay's contract would give few extra bucks to throw at free agents this summer.

Still, there's enough time until trade deadline to start complaining. Remember Dragic last season? Only makes sense to wait and see.

I think RC just wants to spread the floor. Powell has been off ever since McGee got active. Not sure what's going on there but as you can see, nobody is hitting their shots so you got to have CV in. Otherwise spacing would be even worse.

Do the Mavs have a mid-range shooter on the team outside of Dirk?
