Mavs aim to push win streak to 14 vs. Knicks

Basketball Betting Lines

03/13/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The red-hot Dallas Mavericks will try to stretch their season-high winning streak to 14 games tonight when they resume a four-game homestand against the woeful New York Knicks.

Dallas kept its longest winning streak of the season intact with a 96-87 victory in the opener of its residency against New Jersey on Wednesday, as All-Star Jason Kidd racked up 20 points and nine assists.

Caron Butler added 18 points for the Mavericks, who tied Cleveland for the NBA's longest winning streak this season. Rodrigue Beaubois donated 16 points, while Dirk Nowitzki was held to just 12 points on 3-of-16 shooting.

"This is a really good basketball team at home," said Nets coach Kiki Vandeweghe. "You've got to play a perfect game to beat them here."

Dallas, which is now just three games behind the Los Angeles Lakers for the top spot in the West, is now just four wins shy of equaling the franchise record run set in 2006-07 season.

"We're not thinking about the streak. We just want to get better every game. We want to win every game," Kidd told the Mavs' Web site.

The Knicks, meanwhile, fell to 0-2 on a five-game road trip last night in Memphis when ex-Knick Zach Randolph had 24 points and 11 rebounds, as the Grizzlies held on to take a 119-112 victory over New York.

Bill Walker had 21 points off the bench to pace the Knicks, who have lost four of their last five overall. Fellow reserves Toney Douglas and Al Harrington had 19 and 15 points, respectively, while David Lee ended with 17 points and 14 rebounds.

"Toney Douglas came in and did a great job, Bill Walker. You can't play the game without energy and hustle. You just can't do it," Knicks head coach Mike D'Antoni said. "They came in and gave us that little bit...after we were down so many, it's hard to make it up."

New York has dropped eight straight and 15 of 16 to the Mavs, a record of futility that includes the biggest rout in Dallas franchise history, a 128-78 drubbing at Madison Square Garden on Jan. 24. Meanwhile, the Knicks haven't won in Big D this century, last recording a win in north Texas on Dec. 16 1999.
