Mavericks-Celtics Preview

Posted Feb 03 2011 4:42PM

Dirk Nowitzki became the 24th player to reach 22,000 points in the Dallas Mavericks' latest win, their sixth straight as they continue to re-establish themselves as one of the best in the Western Conference.
In what's becoming a Hall of Fame career, Nowitzki has never been consistently better than he's been when facing the Boston Celtics.
Nowitzki's 27.3 points per game versus Boston are his most against any opponent, but the league's stingiest defensive team should provide a stiff challenge Friday night at TD Garden.
The Mavericks (33-15) lost seven of the nine games Nowitzki missed with a sore knee in late December and early January, and dropped three of four upon his return.
Suddenly, they've regained the form that allowed them to win 17 of 18 prior to Nowitzki's injury. Dallas shot 50.0 percent and outrebounded New York 54-34 while cruising to a 113-97 victory at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday night.
The Mavericks have averaged 104.5 points during their six consecutive wins - 14.6 more than in their previous 13 games - but Nowitzki believes defense is making the difference. Dallas limited the high-scoring Knicks to 45 second-half points.
"I think our defense has been going back to where we were in November-December," said Nowitzki, who finished with 29 points. "I think if you look at our effort defensively in the second half, that's what won us the game."
His offense didn't hurt. After scoring 13 in the first half to hit exactly 22,000, Nowitzki had eight points in 2 1/2 minutes early in the third - part of a 26-6 run that gave Dallas a 24-point cushion.
"There's a guy who's worked more on developing his game (than anybody) in the history of the league," coach Rick Carlisle told the NBA's official website. "There's a reason the ball goes in the basket. He's put in the work."
The Celtics (37-11) are well aware. In addition to his career-best 27.3 points per game against Boston, his average at TD Garden - 27.7 - is his best at any venue.
Nowitzki had 37 points there in his last visit, a 99-90 Dallas win Jan. 18, 2010. He had 25 at home against the Celtics on Nov. 8 as the Mavericks shot 50.0 percent in an 89-87 victory.
Boston hasn't let any of its last 10 opponents make half their shots, a stretch in which it's gone 8-2. The Celtics have yielded 90.0 points per game in that stretch - 1.5 below their league-best average - and wrapped up a 3-1 western road trip with a 95-90 win at Sacramento on Tuesday.
Boston held the Kings to 36 second-half points as it climbed out of a nine-point hole, dug primarily when the Celtics' second unit was on the floor. The club's last eight opponents have averaged 41.1 points and shot 40.2 percent after halftime.
"Usually I have to say something at halftime. I kind of stood outside the locker room," coach Doc Rivers said. "(The starters) were upset. They weren't upset that they didn't play well, they were upset at the way they played. We don't play that way. That's not Celtic basketball. That's the great thing about having a veteran team."
While Nowitzki has thrived against the Celtics, the player picked one spot behind him in the 1998 draft has fared well versus Dallas. Paul Pierce has averaged 25.7 points in 11 matchups with the Mavericks since the start of the 2005-06 season, his most against any opponent in that span.
Boston is 16-0 against the East at home, but just 6-3 versus West opponents there.

Celtics over the Magic 90 - 81, but Daniels leaves the court on a stretcher.

http://www.nba.com/2011/news/02/06/d...s=iref:nbahpt2

BOSTON (AP) -- Boston Celtics guard Marquis Daniels has left the game on a stretcher after colliding with Gilbert Arenas of the Orlando Magic.





The Celtics said Daniels, who gave a thumbs-up sign as he was taken off the court Sunday, hurt his neck and was taken to New England Baptist Hospital for examination.
He was hurt with 11:01 left in the second quarter after he began driving to the basket from the right side of the lane and hit his head on Arenas' left shoulder. Daniels fell to the court and lay motionless for a few minutes with his head facing down while surrounded by coaches and teammates near his bench.
Medical personnel put a neck brace on Daniels and strapped him onto a stretcher before he left to the cheers of the crowd, which had remained very quiet until then.

Good things happen when Rondo is aggresive and penetrates defenses of opposing teams at will. I think there's something about Orlando which makes him simply want to go at the Magic with reckless abandon.

Somebody please get him Tony Parker's shooting coach (paging Chip Engeland) so those perimeter jumpers and FTs become automatic. Is it me or does Big Baby have a higher shooting percentage?

Yan ba yung import dati sa PBA

Yes. Well, at that time I believe he was a naturalized Filipino citizen, Along with Jeff Moore and Dennis Still who all played for the Northern Consolidated Cement (NCC) Team which featured the likes of Hector Calma, Allan Caidic and Samboy Lim, among others.

Back to topic, Engeland is credited with improving Tony Parker's offensive versatility by helping him develop his perimeter jumpshot and FT shooting. Previously, Parker scored mainly on his elegant drives to the basket and not much else. I believe this was his first year as the starting PG for the Spurs.

If Rajon develops the same consistency in his shot, not only will be in the conversation as the best PG in the NBA. Quite possibly, he'll also be in the running for MVP honors.

I'm worried lang kasi wala nang back-up sa Paul Pierce sa SF position. They already recalled Avery Bradley sa D-League to augment the line-up. Bwisit kasi si jermaine oneal nagpa opera pa.

[Altis6453]

^ Moreso now that Marquis Daniels is injured. Sayang. He's the more competent backup at the PG position than Krypto Nate. I'm guessing they'll attempt to use Delonte as an undersized SF when he returns from his hand injury, or maybe even Von Wafer.

The thing with Wafer is, he doesn't pass the rock and seems to make a beeline for the rim everytime he has the ball.

If I'm not mistaken Chip also helped Steve Kerr of the Chicago Bulls during the late 90's it paid off as Kerr sank a jumper that beat the Jazz in the 98 Finals.

Didn't know that.

Anyway, I think all Rondo needs is a bit of a tweak on the mechanics of his shot so that he'll develop the muscle memory and confidence to take it if he's left open by opposing teams.

[ans_lim168]

Ray Ray is chasing Miller's all time record for most 3 point shots made. It would be great to break it tomorrow and get a "W" against LA.

[oliver1013]

Ahemmmm!!

[tidus1203]

Again I want to re-iterate that today's game was purely an ego game. It has no significant importance. Just wanna make sure to post it here as well baka sabihin nila hypocrite ako pag tayo talo sasabihin ko di importante pero pag nanalo naging importante...

Yung next game ng Celtics mas importante. They are facing the Miami Heat another Eastern power... They will have a high chance of meeting each other in the playoffs so that game will be more interesting.

[atlantico]

Ahemmmm!!

he!he!he! sir,balik ka na sa kabila at baka ubuhin ka pa rito;
