The Dallas Mavericks are showing signs of life again after a monster win over the Los Angeles Lakers, followed by a solid win against a talented New York Knicks squad. The rest of this month will come with some serious tests for the Mavs starting tonight against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
To make this an even more difficult test for the Mavericks, Dirk Nowitzki, J.J. Barea, Wesley Matthews, and Deron Williams will all be out for tonight’s contest. Three starters and one important role player off the bench against a 27-19 team is never a good thing.
