Regular Season Round 162: Houston R. - Dallas M. 91-98 OT

Date: April 11, 2011
The Dallas Mavericks want the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference playoffs, and they know they'll have to play better than they did on Monday night once the postseason begins. Dirk Nowitzki had 23 points and 12 rebounds, and the Mavericks beat the Houston Rockets 98-91 in overtime to move a half game ahead of the Los Angeles Lakers for the No. 2 slot in the West. Shawn Marion and Jason Terry scored 21 points each, and Tyson Chandler grabbed 12 rebounds for the Mavericks, who snapped a three-game road losing streak by beating Houston for the fourth straight time. But it was hardly pretty. The Mavs committed 20 turnovers, went 4-for-17 from 3-point range and got outrebounded 52-49. But their defense held Houston to 37 percent shooting (35-of-96) and only 20 points across the fourth quarter and overtime. "Our defense was solid all night, really," Nowitzki said. "That really won us the game down the stretch. We didn't execute well, in flow. We didn't have a lot of stuff going on the fast break." Kevin Martin had 28 points to lead the Rockets, who were eliminated from playoff contention on Friday. *Courtesy of www.cbssports.com
