Brent Barry</p> </div> Isn't he exactly the kind of player who beats the Mavericks in these kinds of situations? Barry has hit at least two 3-pointers in five consecutive games and is 11-of-20 from beyond the arc in that stretch. He's coming off a 17-point outing against Portland. ... Point guard Tony Parker is averaging 24.3 points and 9.3 assists in the last three games. ... Josh Howard is coming off his best overall game of the season (27 points, 10 rebounds, six assists) against Chicago. ... Over the last three games, Jason Terry is 11-of-20 from 3-point range. The rest of the Mavericks are 6-of-28.</p> <div style="clear: right; width: 225px; float: right; margin-left: 10px;" class="biblockmore"></div> </p> <div class="dwssubhead">Who's not? Devin Harris</div> Since making 9 of 10 shots against Minnesota last week, the point guard has struggled, hitting 10-of-30 from the field. He's also coming off a neck strain suffered Monday in Chicago, but is expected to play. His matchup with Tony Parker is always entertaining. ... Michael Finley is shooting a pitiful 32.9 percent for the Spurs. ... The Mavericks' field-goal percentage defense ranked 18th in the league before the Bulls came along. After Chicago hit 34.5 percent, the Mavericks moved into a tie for 10th.</p> </p> <div class="dwssubhead">Injuries</div> Mavericks: Devean George (left foot) and Eddie Jones (right leg) are out.</p> Spurs: Tim Duncan (right ankle, knee) is out; Manu Ginobili (left index finger) is questionable.</p> </span></span></p> </div>
Devin Harris with some absolutely great defence on Tony Parker, who is on the bench with two fouls already. Harris drew an offensive foul and is not letting him get easy shots in the paint.</p> Dallas playing well, few shaky passes but otherwise I'm happy.</p>
Josh Howard is really coming into his own as a player these days, he's one of our best offensive threats</p>
