With Shaq And Nash Back Phoenix Still Gets Crushed

The Phoenix Suns had all of its players suited up for the game against the Dallas Mavericks, but they still got crushed losing by 15 with a ending score of 112-97, making this the 4th straight loss.  Dallas looked the best they have so far this season, swinging the ball side to side and playing some decent D.

Dirk Nowitzki and JJ Barea both had their season highs for points scored with 39 and 18 points respectively.  The only other player on the roster that had double figures for the Mavs was Jason Terry with 19 points.  Erick Dampier also contributed with 9 points and 14 rebounds.  The Dallas team spread the floor and shot 51% from the field as a whole.  The bleachers were packed with over 19,000 attendees in the stadium and were excited and cheering throughout the game.  This was a good victory for the Mavs and could be a glimpse at the first round in the Playoffs where they have a possibility of playing the Suns.
