This is one of the rare occasions I'll be rooting for the Spurs....
This will be an exciting showdown. It's still just the regular season, but it'd be nice for the Spurs to send a message.
Sorry AJ.

I can see why since Dallas could take away home court from Detroit in the finals.
sorry aj NOT
Go Spurs Go!
Nonsense, playing for HCA in the playoffs. It means a great deal.
I won't be participating in this blog, because I'll be at the game.
I don't know who will win, but I expect Parker to have 30+ if its close.

Mavericks @ Spurs 9:30 p.m. ET
1 Just one game separates the Mavericks and Spurs in the standings, yet the first and second place spots represent a difference between a No. 1 seed and a No. 4 seed in the Western Conference playoff bracket. The second tie-breaker is conference record, and the Spurs would have a five-game advantage in the loss column there if they prevail tonight.
1-1 The season series between Dallas and San Antonio is an even 1-1, with both games occurring on the Mavericks' home floor. In their last meeting on Dec. 1, Dirk Nowitzki had a chance to tie the game at the end of regulation, but Bruce Bowen forced his attempt astray, giving the Spurs the 92-90 win. In their initial Nov. 5 meeting, Dallas guard Devin Harris posted 20 of his 22 points in the fourth quarter as the Mavericks cruised to a 103-84 triumph.
3-of-4 In three of the last four years, one game or less has separated the Spurs and the Mavericks in the final standings. Four of the last five years, The Spurs have finished first in their division with the Mavericks right behind them in second.
6 The Mavericks current winning streak is at six games.
6-1 Dallas is 6-1 against the NBA’s conference finalists from the 2005 NBA Playoffs (San Antonio, Detroit, Miami and Phoenix). In those seven games, the Mavericks are averaging 105.7 points versus 89.7 for their opponents.
20.0 Over the last 32 games, Dallas is giving up just 20.0 fourth quarter points per game (640 total) on .363 shooting.
24-3 The Spurs have won five in a row at home to push their SBC Center record to a league-best 24-3 mark (.889 winning percentage).
87.9 The Spurs are holding opponents to 87.9 points per contest (first in the NBA) and .425 (1875-4411) shooting (first in the NBA) this season, which is the ninth time in the last nine years that the Spurs were in the top five in each of these categories.
