OKLAHOMA CITY – There’s something about playing on the other side of the Red River that agrees with the Mavericks.
For the second time this season, they went into Paycom Center and took down the mighty Oklahoma City Thunder, beating them 121-115 Thursday night as the Mavericks dug out a win against odds that were seriously stacked against them because of their injury situation.
P.J. Washington, Kyrie Irving and Spencer Dinwiddie did a ton of heavy lifting. Maybe two tons. Then Maxi Kleber came through with some strong clutch plays in the final minutes as the Mavericks improved to 3-1 against the Thunder this season, including 2-1 in OKC.
