WHO: Dallas Mavericks at Golden State Warriors
WHAT: A chance to pick up some additional steam in the playoff push.
WHERE: ORACLE Arena, Oakland, California
WHEN: 9:30 p.m. CDT
HOW: FSSW
THE STORY: When we last left our plucky Mavericks, they were glowing from their wildly successful homestand against the Blazers and Pacers. Tonight should be an interesting challenge, as the Mavs take their success on the road to one of the loudest arenas in the NBA, against an opponent that is also battling for playoff positioning. We should see some three point shooting on display tonight, as Dirk, Calderon & Co. face off against the Curry and Thompson "Splash Brothers." As always, defense would be a welcome touch.
Welcome to stay up late basketball! Hope you brought your caffeine. Let's go Mavs.
