I know what your thinking Mavs Nation how do you blow a 91-86 lead with about a 1:20 left in regulations with these following players: Mavs G.O.A.T. @Swish41, "Mississippi Lightning" Monta, D.H. of "A Whole bunch of Badgers", pint-sized JJ of the Puerto Rican National Team among others. Over a minute left in an NBA game is an eternity and the Mavs knew and blew it that simple.
To the Mavs credit they were tied after one and was behind by nine points at the break and at the end of three. They have horses in Big D that's why the Mavs and Germany's favorite Bubble Gum DIRK-ilicious left a Well Fargo Wagon of Cash with Mavs Spalding Orange Brain Trust Donnie Nelson and Keith Grant among others to grab top reinforcements to make another run.
That 91-86 Mavs lead was taken away by the play of the best scoring two-guard in the Logo James Harden who tied the game late at 92-92 knocking down an and one. Then Trevor Ariza iced the game after disappearing in this one a frame or two ago.
Red Nation did it get this shooting 46 from Sugarland, TX and the 5th Ward among other places and that would be deep orange from 23'9". They made 15 of those and the Mavs in turn shot just 6 for 35 from the arc as the teams combined to create a new loft building in downtown H-Town.
Harden had a game-high 32 points and eight boards with Patrick Beverley adding 20 points before he went out late with that bad "Hammy". The Rockets had no "Dwight of Three Stripes" or Terrence Jones on that front line showing some valentine in this one. Rockets move to 10-3 in 2014-15.
The Mavs get 17 points from Monta and 14 points and eleven boards from former Brentwood, TN Academy Star and UNC Tar Heel Brandan Wright. Germany's G.O.A.T. @swish41 was 0 for 8 from the arc with 11 points on the night. Former Rocket Chandler Parsons was M.I.A. with just 8 points missing all five attempts from the arc.
