Re: Dallas Mavericks vs Philadelphia 76ers (27th February)
The Mavericks extended their home winning streak to 15 games with Monday's victory against the 76ers. Dallas is only the third team in the last three years to win 15 consecutive home games within a single season. The Heat (18 in a row) and Spurs (16) both did so in 2004-05.
After coming back from huge deficits to win their last two games (19 points against Memphis and 24 points against Toronto), the Mavericks put Philadelphia away early, building an 18-point lead (26-8) 6½ minutes into the game. That matched Dallas' second-largest lead during the first quarter of any game this season; the Mavs had a 26-point first-period lead against Detroit on Nov. 19.
