Mavericks get win number one of the season. After losing last night's game against to the Thunder in a close match; the Mavs came out and dominated almost every aspect of the game. The only exception being in the third quarter when the Mavs got down by four. After that they came back and went on a 12-0 run to regain the lead. We saw for the first time this season the Mavs bring out their defense keeping the Raptors to only 86 points. The offense didn't look too shaky either. The bench had a nice outing giving the Mavs 56 points off the bench. The top three contributors off the bench were Vince Carter who got a solid 10 points, Jason Terry with 17 points, and Ian Mahinmi who had a career high 19 points on his part. Dirk Nowitzki to his credit had 18 points on the night. Overall a nice looking victory for the Mavericks to end the year with a win. The Mavericks next game will be in Minnesota taking on JJ Barea's Timberwolves who lost to Heat tonight 103 to 101 thanks to a buzzer beater by Dwyane Wade who was assisted by his buddy LeBron James. Barea didn't play due to a strained left hamstring. The game will be on January 1st 2012!!!
