The Mavericks and San Antonio Spurs are linked in history for many reasons.
One or both of them is usually fighting for (and winning) the Southwest Division.
Both of them have coaches who have been around forever.
And, most importantly at the moment, both of them needed a victory Wednesday night.
The second half of the NBA’s season began at American Airlines Center and if this is how it’s going to be, Mavericks’ fans are going to be thoroughly entertained for the next couple months.
If their blood pressure can take it.
