Per @Stathead the 38 assists by the Mavericks were the most they’ve had in a game since 39 in a 2OT win at DEN in Apr 2015 (Raymond Felton GW shot). In regulation it’s the most since 39 at PHI in Feb 2014 – 1:03 AM

Loved the Mavs approach tonight. POR was shorthanded numbers-wise and size wise, and Mavs mad sure they’d pay a terrible price for that as they repeatedly went to their bigs early, and Porzingis and Powell made no mistakes. – 12:59 AM

Blazers have no size with Nurkic out of there, and Porzingis made sure they’d pay. A couple of duck-ins early, some 3ptrs in the middle, and beautiful off ball movement late in the half producing 24 points and a Mavs 72-53 lead. 2nd half soon @theeagledallas – 11:19 PM

Mavs lead the Trail Blazers 72-53 at half.
Pick any offensive statistic, and it’s probably looking really good tonight.
Most first-half points this season. Outscoring Portland 34-8 in the paint. Shooting 57.4% from the field. Etc. – 11:16 PM

Jason Kidd said 6 Mavs, including Luka, are still in COVID-19 protocol.
But Reggie Bullock “is getting close to clearance” and plans to join team in Sacramento this week.
Bullock was the first Mavs player to test positive in this outbreak, Dec. 18. – 8:38 PM

Quin Snyder addressed Donovan Mitchell’s back injury, noting that there was some soreness lingering after the Dallas game, and a determination was made that it was simply better for him to have access to the team facilities than to put him on a couple long plane rides. – 7:10 PM

For what it’s worth, #Pistons Luka Garza seems to have been right about not having 6 fouls.
The official announced verbally and signaled to the scorer’s table that Garza’s 5th foul was on “91” — Deividas Sirvydis.
On the official play-by-play, that foul is credited to Garza. – 4:48 PM
