Halftime: Boston 64, Dallas 46.
Mavs rallied from 18 down to win at Houston three nights ago, but these of course aren’t the Rockets. – 8:36 PM

How might the Rockets rotation look now that everyone is healthy and will any players who have been playing every night wind up getting DNPs? “We’ll see,” Stephen Silas said. – 6:36 PM

Tonight’s Mavs vs Celtics game is Luka’s 300th career game. Searching on @Stathead, he’s 9th in NBA history in total points scored in his first 300 games. Most recently passing LeBron (vs New York) & Shaq (Monday in Houston), and he’ll end up w/in 100 pts of Elvin Hayes for 8th. pic.twitter.com/ZPRzYhhTDj – 4:21 PM
