The last time the Orlando Magic won at American Airlines Center, the Mavericks were on their way to the NBA championship.
It was Jan. 8, 2011, and the only Maverick on that team who is still around is coach Jason Kidd, who was the starting point guard back then. Tyson Chandler also is involved as tutor for young center Dereck Lively II.
So it’s been the equivalent of an NBA generation that the Mavericks have dominated Orlando and the streak continued Sunday night as they took charge early and strolled to a 108-85 victory over the shorthanded and road-weary Magic, who are on a five-game trip and playing without their best player, all-star Paolo Banchero.
