The game finished under 199 points. The Mavs jumped out to the 56-44 lead at the half. The team shot 45.7% from the floor and made 8 of 21 three pointers. Dallas crushed the Timberwolves on the glass by a 59-40 margin and held Minnesota to 36.4% shooting. Vince Carter came off the bench for 22 points and 9 rebounds on 8 of 15 shooting. For Dallas to get into the playoffs they will need to be better defensively. They are 27th and fourth last in the NBA in points allowed by giving up 102.2 points a game. The Mavericks allowed under 100 points in five of their past seven games. They trail the LA Lakers for the eighth seed by three games.

Monta Ellis had 29 points and 9 assists for Milwaukee in the win. Since the trade for J.J. Redick we have seen much more efficient play from Monta Ellis and Brandon Jennings. They are finally dishing out assists and they better or risk losing minutes. As a result of the attitude adjustment by Jennings and Ellis they are lifting up the Milwaukee’s shooting percentage.
