Mavs play a complete game and blow out the Golden State Warriors, 126-91

Playing in an arena that gave him so many frustrations, Nowitzki looked fit as a fiddle as he scored 10 of the Dallas Mavericks’ first 14 points on Saturday night. From there, the Mavs continued their total dominance as they led wire-to-wire and embarrassed the Golden State Warriors, winning, 126-91, before a sellout crowd of 19,596.

Considering that the Warriors are the two-time defending NBA champions and are heavy favorites to three-peat as champions — and the Mavs entered the game just 6-30 on the road – what transpired Saturday was totally unexpected on many levels.

“Our guys came out and really competed and played a complete game,” coach Rick Carlisle said.
