Dallas Mavericks

The Mavericks lately are mostly confidently coping with the middles and outsiders, but in meetings with strong opponents time after time they suffer defeats. This, in particular, is indicated by a stretch of four previous matches. Dallas beat Charlotte (103:96), but suffered three defeats - in California from the Golden State (102:126) and Los Angeles Lakers (99:107), and at home from Milwaukee (117:132).

Sacramento Kings

The Kings top ten of the Western Conference is just about as close as it gets. Doug Christie's team has a positive balance of victories - 31-28, and ahead of the 11th place by the same, as Dallas, 3.5 wins.

Sacramento is coming into this game on a three-game winning streak. The Kings have beaten Charlotte (130-88) at home, and on the road they were stronger than Utah (118:101) and Houston (113:103).
