Mavs send Warriors to ninth straight loss; Ellis hurts knee
Basketball Betting Lines
02/09/2010 -
Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jason Terry made 6-of-9 three-point tries,
finishing with a season-high 36 points, along with nine assists and six
rebounds, as Dallas took control in the fourth quarter in a 127-117 victory
over Golden State.
It appeared as if the Warriors were on their way to snapping an eight-game
losing streak, but the Mavericks outscored the hosts 37-19 in the final frame
to earn just their second win in six games, which included a home setback to
the lowly Timberwolves on Friday.
Jason Kidd recorded 17 points and 12 assists, while Josh Howard and Drew
Gooden added 25 and 24 points, respectively, for Dallas, which received a 15-
point, eight-rebound effort from Dirk Nowitzki. Gooden also pulled down 10
caroms in a winning cause.
Anthony Morrow paced the Warriors with 33 points and 11 rebounds, while
Stephen Curry donated 25 points and nine assists in the loss.
Golden State's leading scorer, Monta Ellis, netted 27 points but went to the
ground hard after making a driving layup late in the fourth quarter. He stayed
on the floor for a moment, favoring his left knee before gingerly walking
under his own power to the bench.
"I was just praying that he was alright, me coming off that knee injury and
him having a knee injury like that earlier in his career it was just tough
seeing that, so I just wanted to run down there and make sure he was alright,"
Morrow said. "I was glad he got up on his own, I just hope it's not as bad as
it seemed like it was."
Ellis has a sprained knee. He's scheduled to have an MRI Tuesday.
Dallas, which trailed by as many as 14, took its first lead of the night,
108-106, on Nowitzki's three-point play with 6:40 left in regulation.
The free throw capped a 14-4 spurt, and the Mavs continued to build momentum
in front of a suddenly silent Oracle Arena crowd.
A pair of Gooden makes at the stripe finished off eight straight Dallas points
and resulted in a 116-110 game with 4:51 left.
Ellis went down a minute later, and Golden State didn't have the fire power to
match Dallas' hot streak from the field, making just one field goal over the
final 5:55 to fall short yet again.
The Mavericks missed their first six shots from the floor and found themselves
down 12-3 after four minutes of action.
Jose Barea's late three-pointer cut the deficit to 34-29 heading to the
second, but the Warriors scored the first seven points of the stanza --
capped by a Curry three-pointer -- for a 12-point lead.
Golden State continued to play front-runner until the fourth, taking a 70-61
lead into the locker room and upping the difference to 98-90 with 12 minutes
to play.
