Denver Nuggets vs. Dallas Mavericks Preview
On the season the Nuggets are 16-20-2 ATS and they have an O/U record of 16-20-2 and the Mavericks are 20-20 ATS and they have an Under record of 21-19.

[dfads params=’groups=63742&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]
These 2 teams met in their last game with the Nuggets beating the Mavs 114-107 in Denver.
The Nuggets have won 5 straight and beat Dallas in their last game, but the Mavs were without Dirk Nowitzki. Tyson Chandler, and Rajon Rondo, who will all play tonight.
The Nuggets’ offense has been en fuego, which is the why they have won 5 in a row. In the streak Denver has shot 51.5% from the floor averaging nearly 110 ppg.
The Nuggets may have to have another big scoring game since their defense only ranks 25th in the league in opponents’ points allowed. Dallas only ranks 23rd in the league on defense, but they are the 2nd highest scoring team in the league.

Obviously, with Nowitzki, Chandler, and Rando out it hurt them in the last game since they are 3 of the top 5 scorers for the Mavs. Monta Ellis leads the team in scoring, but had nis 2nd lowest points total of the season (5) in the loss to the Nuggets.
Ty Lawson leads the Nuggets in scoring and he went for 29 points with 12 assists facing the Mavs. He ranks 2nd in the NBA in assists per game and Rando ranks 3rd.
The Nuggets outrebounded the Mavs by 12 in the last match up, but that will be hard to duplicate with Chandler back on the court, as he ranks 4th in the league in rebounding and has averaged nearly 4 boards per game in his last 4 games.
One bright spot for the Mavs in the Nuggets loss was that their bench went for 62 points.
