Big Fourth Carries Mavericks Over Bucks
Quote:
MILWAUKEE, Feb. 13 (AP) -- Dallas coach Avery Johnson admits even he's stunned sometimes by the Mavericks' cornerstone player.
"Dirk Nowitzki is incredible. Man, sometimes, I get caught watching him, he's so good,'' Johnson said.
Nowitzki had another brilliant performance with 38 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists and the Mavs overcame a 16-point second-half deficit to beat the Milwaukee Bucks 99-93 Tuesday night for their eighth straight win.
The Mavericks, with the NBA's best record at 43-9, outscored the Bucks 28-11 in the fourth quarter as Milwaukee self-destructed with six turnovers and failed to hit a field goal in the final 7:05.
