Dirk was missing everything but that changed in the 4th quarter. With a late surge by the Mavs being down by 10, the Mavericks overcame the deficit to beat the Spurs 112-103 with a huge thanks to Dirk, dropping 16 points in the 4th and the Mavs having a combined 42 points in the 4th to secure the win.
Dirk didn’t do it alone though either with 5 other players in double digits and Terry having 21 points.
I always feel like the Mavs win the championship each and everytime they beat the Spurs!

Overcoming a 17 point deficit at one point, the Mavericks topped the Rockets to win 121-103.
They held Ariza to only 9 points with Dampier having a huge game, scoring 14 points, going 6-6, 20 rebounds and 3 blocks. This is how Dampier should play every game, but then again, without Yao, he made it look easy.
Of course Terry had a huge game as the top Maverick scorer with 24 points in which he always does well against the Rockets.
We’ll have to thank the defense that helped spark a 22-3 run. The Mavericks need to keep this momentum going into Wednesdays matchup against the Spurs. The Mavericks are averaging 119 points in their past 3 games.
The Rockets went scoreless in the last 3 minutes in the first half, giving the Mavs a 10-0 run and then the Rockets opening the 3rd quarter only making 5 of 22 shots, making it their lowest scoring quarter for the season with 13 points.
Terry has also been hot, going 27-38 over the past 3 games which is likely for the increase in the Mavericks overall offense.
