Butler leads the way as Mavs dump Spurs, avoid elimination
Basketball Betting Lines
04/28/2010 -
Dallas, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Caron Butler poured in a playoff career-best 35
points to go with 11 rebounds, and the Dallas Mavericks staved off elimination
with a convincing 103-81 win over the San Antonio Spurs.
Butler was the offense's focal point, hitting 12-of-24 shots and 8-of-9 from
the free throw line for the Mavs, who will have to duplicate their
season-ending three-game win streak against the Spurs to move into the
conference semis. Dallas is facing long odds, however, as only eight out of
189 teams have responded from a 3-1 series deficit to advance.
Dirk Nowitzki chipped in with 15 points and nine rebounds for Dallas, which
faces another must-win game on Thursday in San Antonio, where it lost Games 3
and 4 last week. Jason Terry added 12 points, while Jason Kidd and Shawn
Marion each had 10.
Tony Parker came off the bench and tallied 18 points -- 17 in the first half
-- for the Spurs, who had won the previous three games in this series. San
Antonio, which shot a putrid 35.9 percent from the field, got 12 points from
George Hill and 11 from Tim Duncan in defeat.
