The young rookie is having his second tough game -- offensively, at least. He's still a pest on the defensive end, but he can't get anything going as teams are starting to overplay him a bit.
He's got three points in 13 minutes, but he's looked choppy in the offensive...

You won't miss anything the way this game is going right now.
The Mavericks and Pacers suddenly can't make any shots and the Mavericks still have found a way to increase their 12-point halftime lead to 78-61.

For the second game in a row, the Mavericks are blistering the nets.
After throwing in 66 percent of their shots Wednesday at Houston, they are hitting 50 percent against the Pacers and lead 66-54 at halftime.
And after Wednesday, 50 percent seems sort of average.
The Pacers put...

What else can you call Kris Humphries, who grabbed 10 rebounds in just 10 minutes off the bench. He was a major reason the Mavericks went up by 20 points in the second quarter.
Humphries also had eight points and J.J. Barea had five points and five rebounds.

For the first time in weeks, James Singleton is seeing meaningful action.
He got teased near the end of the first quarter when Rick Carlisle put him in for Dirk Nowitzki, then took him out just 10 seconds later when Nowitzki went back in on an offensive possession.
But the 6-8 Singleton...

The end of the first quarter came with a somewhat unplanned play.
The Mavericks were trying to get Jason Terry free for a 3-pointer, but he was well guarded and his heave hit only the backboard.
As look would have it, the ball bounced right out to J.J. Barea, who canned a 3-pointer...

The Mavericks enjoyed a nice chunk of garbage time and finished off a 130-99 win over the Rockets.

Jason Kidd just fed Roddy Beaubois with a lob pass for a dunk early in the third quarter, giving Kidd his fifth assist of the game.
That pushes him past Mark Jackson for second on the all-time NBA list. Kidd now has 10,335 assists for his career. He'll never catch John Stockton...

With Tim Thomas and Jason Terry doing the heavy lifting, Dirk Nowitzki is getting an extended stay on the bench, which has to be a good thing after he's played 40 minutes a game on a consistent basis lately.
It may also jump start him, since he had just one point in 11 first-quarter...

Jason Terry not only is ripping the nets, he's got six assists less than three minutes into the second quarter.
Most of them have come to Tim Thomas, who has hit six of seven shots and has 15 points.

As in, 23-zip to finish the first quarter.
Jason Terry had 13 points on 5-of-5 shooting and it's amazing how the energy level picks up when the shots start going in.
The Mavericks are up 36-25, their highest-scoring first quarter of the season.

They still are getting out-worked and out-scored, 24 hours later.
After finishing Tuesday's game by getting outscored 22-5, they started against Houston by letting the Mavericks get out to a 15-2 lead.
That's 37-7 over the two games, if you're keeping score.
