It mehndi design looked briefly like Milwaukee and not Monta was going to have it all tonight, but Ellis' buzzer-beater avoided yet another overtime, and the Mavericks closed out this road trip with a win over the Bucks. mehndi design
After a double overtime thriller in Chicago, this game seemed destined to be a bit of an emotional letdown. Despite the close score and solid performances from several Mavericks, including Tyson Chandler (who had all of the rebounds) mehndi design and Al-Farouq Aminu , most of this game felt slow and a little sloppy, with the Mavs turning mehndi design the ball over frequently early on and allowing the Bucks to shoot their way to a 64-point first half. Monta's chaotic offense can be a lot of fun to in games like last night's, but it can be frustrating to watch him take more than 20 shots as he struggles against an inferior team. Luckily, he yet again turned it on when it counted, scoring three buckets in a row late in the fourth to help the Mavericks regain the lead, and it was his buzzer beating mehndi design jumper that saved the Mavericks from yet another overtime and allowed them to close out their four-game road trip with a fourth win.
The Mavericks got off to a sluggish start, almost as if most of their players were recovering from something strenuous the night before. The Bucks got on the board early with a series mehndi design of emphatic dunks, mehndi design while Dallas turned over the ball several times before they made their first field goal, an Aminu corner three a few minutes into the game.
With mehndi design Dirk out, Carlisle started a small line-up featuring Aminu at power forward, and it was the Mavs guards plus Aminu who kept them in the game early on, with surprisingly little to show on offense from either Tyson Chandler or Brandan Wright during the first quarter.
Still, despite the slow start, the Mavs ended the quarter with 29 points shooting above 50 percent from the field. Unfortunately, they gave up 31 to the Bucks, who shot uncharacteristically well. Some of this was probably a bit of luck, but it was on defense that the Mavs really looked a team playing the night after a double overtime road win.
In the second mehndi design quarter, which featured what must be the earliest mehndi design in-game appearance of Charlie Villanueva , turnovers continued to be a problem. Thanks in part to Brandon Knight's impressive four first-half steals, Dallas turned the ball over 10 times in the first two quarters, and the Bucks took advantage, converting those turnovers into 14 points. The Mavericks' shooting was again quite good (50 percent mehndi design from three!), but they looked tired on defense and continued to allow the Bucks to get the shots they wanted. Despite shooting below 45 percent this season, Milwaukee managed to hit 63 percent of their shots during the first half, including four of seven from deep.
The Milwaukee lead grew to nine, but with seconds left in the half, the Mavericks got several free throws after Tyson Chandler drew a hard shooting foul on Zaza Pachulia plus a technical. Monta made the technical and Chandler split the pair to bring the Mavericks within seven at the half.
The third quarter kicked off with a technical on the Mavs bench that seemed to confuse everyone, including the Bucks announcers, followed by a Greek Freak three that brought the Bucks' lead back up to nine. But the Mavs kept chipping away, and the Bucks' relative inexperience started to show. On two possessions mehndi design in a row early in the quarter they let the shot clock run down, and it was this sort of mistake (plus a brief return to the Bucks' normal shooting form and tighter defense from the Mavericks) that helped Dallas take the lead halfway through the quarter.
The second half also saw the Mavericks dominate in the paint, where by the beginning of the fourth quarter they had outscored the Bucks 44 to 28. The Bucks didn't give in to the Mavericks' third-quarter momentum, though. The Mavericks never led by more than a few points, and Milwaukee pretty quickly regained the lead, expanding it to as many as eight before the Mavs went on a small run and a Jameer Nelson three cut the lead to just one and a timely Monta make put Dallas back on top.
The Bucks again refused to give up, and Brandon Knight hit a contested jumper with 8.9 seconds left to tie the game, but Monta, determined to have it all yet again, mehndi design hit a long two at the buzzer for the win. Final score 107-105.
