Denver is 5-5 in their last 10, with just one win in this current road trip they are on. They just lost last night, letting Reddick torch them for 23 points. The game is in Dallas, so I'm expecting the worst for the Nuggets.

On ESPN for the standings it has Denver at the five seed. Would they still get home court advantage over Phoenix if the season ended today?

Nope. The Suns have the better record, and Denver is a five seed because Utah just took the division.

Yeah, not having Martin to defend Nowitzki will be a big deal, unless Dirk goes cold from the floor for no reason.

Not surprised at Dirk's trip-dub. He didn't shoot 50% from the field, but a large part of that was because Denver was putting everyone they could on him, and fouling him like crazy in the process (shot what...15 free throws or so?), and his ability to get the 10 boards and 10 assists also has a lot to do with an absent Martin.

He had 9 assists, no triple double.

CBS got it wrong, then. They have him at 34/10/10.

DALLAS -- Dirk Nowitzki had 34 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists for his second career triple-double, and the Dallas Mavericks maintained the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference with a 109-93 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Monday night.

 

Shawn Marion added 21 points and Jason Terry contributed 15 for Dallas, which increased its conference lead over Denver to 1 1-2 games.

 

Nowitzki's other triple-double came with 29 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists against Milwaukee on Feb. 6, 2008.
