Knicks ended Mavs’ 6-game winning streak in January and they’re off to a strong start it ending Dallas’ 5-game streak tonight. Doncic 3-point play brings Mavs within 24-16, but it’s been tough sledding. – 9:05 PM

It’s 13-4 and awfully quiet in here. Mavs haven’t given the home fans much about which to cheer. The Doncic-Brunson backcourt is a combined 1-for-7 from the field. – 8:49 PM

Doncic grabbed at his back after that foul, still wincing. – 8:45 PM

As far as replacing Isaiah Stewart tonight, Casey said it’ll be a “three-man tag team” between Marvin Bagley III, Kelly Olynyk and Luka Garza. – 5:23 PM

Only three players in NBA history have averaged at least 30p/10r/5a per 36 minutes in a season:
✅ Giannis Antetokounmpo
✅ Russell Westbrook
✅ Luka Doncic
Westbrook and Doncic have each done so once.
Antetokounmpo is on pace to do so for the fourth consecutive season. pic.twitter.com/AKHxUNMfBf – 1:31 PM

Gerald Bourguet: “The pattern that we’re having to deal with from a free throw perspective is just getting old” – Monty Williams -via Twitter @GeraldBourguet / March 7, 2022
In terms of controlling emotions during games, the Knicks haven’t set the best example. Thibodeau’s complaining to the referees is typically loud and demonstrative. Top executive William Wesley had also been animated during games toward referees, especially on the road, and was spotted last season storming around in a tantrum behind the basket in Barclays Center. -via New York Daily News / March 7, 2022
