Notes
The Mavericks won their first 16 ever meetings against the Bobcats before losing last year at Charlotte in overtime sans Dirk Nowitzki. The Mavs were the last NBA team that Charlotte hadn't beaten. Jose Calderon' status remains in doubt after he did not practice on Monday due to a sprained ankle. Dejuan Blair has totaled 62 rebounds in his last 6 games, grabbing at least 8 boards in every game. Vince Carter has shot above 50% in only 2 of the 17 games he has played this year. One of those games was opening night. The Bobcats have gone from the worst defense in the league on a points per 100 possessions basis last season (111.5), to ranked 4th in the league this season (100.3) under new coach Steve Clifford. This is the Charlotte franchise's last season as the Bobcats before they become the Hornets next year.
