NBA ROUNDUP Nowitzki lifts Mavs to win Moves past Malone on all-time scoring list Comment By The Associated Press MailTribune.com By The Associated Press Posted Jan. 6, 2015 @ 2:00 am By The Associated Press Posted Jan. 6, 2015 @ 2:00 am » Social News NEW YORK— Dirk Nowitzki made a clinching 3-pointer in overtime that moved him into seventh place on the NBA's career scoring list, and the Dallas Mavericks beat the Brooklyn Nets 96-88 on Monday night to match their season high with a sixth straight victory. Monta Ellis scored 19 points and made a pair of jumpers early in overtime before consecutive 3-pointers by Chandler Parsons and Nowitzki made it 96-88 with 34 seconds to play. That gave Nowitzki 15 points for the game and 27,412 in his career, moving him past Moses Malone into the No. 7 spot. Rajon Rondo shot 1 of 13 for two points but had 14 assists and 10 rebounds for the Mavericks, who have the longest current winning streak in the NBA. Tyson Chandler finished with 14 points and 13 boards. Brook Lopez had 22 points and 13 rebounds for the Nets but faded after an 18-point first quarter. Jarrett Jack had 20 points and 10 assists. The Nets were without Deron Williams (sore left side) and Kevin Garnett, who rested on the second night of back-to-back games, and dropped their second straight after winning three in a row. WARRIORS 117, THUNDER 91: At Oakland, Calif., Harrison Barnes scored a season-high 23 points and grabbed seven rebounds, and Golden State used a smothering defensive effort to rout Oklahoma City. Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry scored 19 points each as the NBA-best Warriors (27-5) bottled up Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook and the Thunder. Golden State held Oklahoma City to 30.6 percent shooting. HAWKS 107, CLIPPERS 98: At Los Angeles, Paul Millsap scored 23 points, Jeff Teague added 20 and Atlanta pulled away from Los Angeles in the fourth quarter to earn its seventh straight road victory for the first time in 21 years. DeMarre Carroll had 17 points and eight rebounds, and Al Horford scored 16 for the East-leading Hawks, who won their fifth in a row and 19th in 21 games. BULLS 114, ROCKETS 105: At Chicago, Pau Gasol had 27 points and 14 rebounds, Jimmy Butler scored 22 and Chicago rallied for its 13th win in 15 games. Derrick Rose added 19 points, Nikola Mirotic had 17 and the Bulls outscored the Rockets 19-5 over the final 3:19. 76ERS 95, CAVALIERS 92: At Philadelphia, Tony Wroten scored 20 points and hit the go-ahead layup with 9.1 seconds left to lift Philadelphia over short-handed Cleveland. Philadelphia had been 0-14 at home this season. Kevin Love had 28 points and 19 rebounds for the Cavaliers, who didn't have LeBron James and Kyrie Irving because of injuries. GRIZZLIES 105, KNICKS 83: At Memphis, Tenn., Mike Conley scored 14 of his 22 points in the third quarter, and Memphis sent depleted New York to its record-tying 12th straight loss. The Knicks (5-32), who have the NBA's worst winning percentage, lost for the 22nd time in 23 games. WIZARDS 92, PELICANS 85: At New Orleans, John Wall had 15 points and 12 assists, and Washington ended its longest skid of the season at three games with a victory over New Orleans. Anthony Davis had 21 points and 10 rebounds for New Orleans, which led only once — by a single point in the first 4 minutes of the game. HORNETS 104, CELTICS 95: At Boston, Kemba Walker scored 20 of his 33 points in the second half and Cody Zeller finished with a career-high 20 on a perfect shooting night, carrying Charlotte over Boston. It was just the second win in seven games for the Hornets, who learned last week that leading scorer Al Jefferson will be sidelined for about three more weeks with a left groin injury. NUGGETS 110, TIMBERWOLVES 101: At Minneapolis, Arron Afflalo scored 34 points to help Denver hand Minnesota its 12th straight loss. J.J. Hickson had 16 points and 11 rebounds and the Nuggets shot 55 percent to cruise past the Timberwolves (5-28) PACERS 105, JAZZ 101: At Salt Lake City, Roy Hibbert scored 22 points to help Indiana outlast Utah. Hibbert, who got into a skirmish with the Lakers' Carlos Boozer in a one-point loss at Los Angeles on Sunday, again played with a fiery edge and repeatedly went over 7-foot-1 Rudy Gobert for inside baskets before fouling out in the final minute.
