Small lineup or not, here's what Mavs have to take from win vs. Hornets into toughest part of schedule

CLEVELAND -- To put it bluntly, Raymond Felton hasn't been able to hit his butt with his hands the last three weeks.

Going back 10 games and through the first three quarters of Monday's revitalizing win at Charlotte, Felton had missed 23 of the last 24 3-point attempts he had taken.

"Coach pulled me off to the side and said, 'You're due,''' Felton said. "You're going to hit a big shot."

And so, he did. With Charlotte trying to make one last push, Felton pulled up from beyond the arc and drilled a triple to put the Mavericks up 98-85 and squash the Hornets.
