Owner Real Deal Posted March 22, 2012 Author Owner Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 DENVER -- Dirk Nowitzki answered everything the Denver Nuggets threw at him. The only thing that stopped him was the lopsided score. Nowitzki had 33 points and 11 rebounds before getting a rest in the fourth quarter, Brandan Wright scored a season-high 15 points and the Dallas Mavericks won 112-95 on Monday night. Arron Afflalo scored 24 points for the Nuggets, who lost a game that could have an impact on their playoff position. Denver entered Monday seventh in the Western Conference, a half-game behind Dallas. The Mavericks not only gained a game on the Nuggets, they won the season series and hold a tiebreaker should the teams finish with the same record. "It always helps," Mavericks guard Vince Carter said. "Right now, it's not about series wins, it is about getting wins and moving ourselves up the ladder." Nowitzki was the biggest reason they hold the tiebreaker. The 13-year veteran started hitting shots early and never really stopped as he finished 12 of 19 from the field against several different defenders, all of whom were shaking their heads. And when he wasn't hitting shots, he was finding the open man. He finished with six assists.http://www.cbssports.com/nba/gametracker/recap/NBA_20120319_DAL@DEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
