Georges Niang on not hesitating even when he’s struggling with his shot: “I’d much rather just miss the shot — give myself a chance to score, at least — than do something stupid. I got over that real quick once I traveled or turned the ball over a couple times.” – 11:25 PM

Joel Embiid on if he expects to play both Sun and Mon: “Yeah, but I’m gonna listen to [the staff]. I know they have options and they were going to talk to me.…The goal is obviously to win a championship, and at some point, you’ve got to think about what’s gonna take us there.” – 11:21 PM

Full credit to Philly. Whatever issues Embiid and Harden might have been having seemed to go away from the 2nd qtr on, and their zone which seemed to morph from a 2-3 into a 1-3-1 was something Mavs could never solve. It certainly got Luka out of his comfort zone. – 9:43 PM

Not to say that Harden can’t get by some of the worst defenders, but man, I might give it a shot once or twice. Trying to hedge and recover to Niang on that is just not that easy. – 8:52 PM

Sixers 84, Mavs 76 at the end of the third. Sixers created some distance with a three-point burst from Niang and Thybulle and an alley-oop finish from Jordan. Embiid has 26-6-3. Harden is 3-of-11 from the floor for 13 points but has 8 assists and 5 boards. – 8:51 PM

Jason Kidd says he has nothing to add to what the Mavericks have said about Donnie Nelson’s lawsuit against the team. Said he’s focused on the court, and that it doesn’t have anything to do with the players and coaching staff. – 5:37 PM

Asked Doc, who has said there is a rest plan in place for Harden and Embiid, if both of them could get a game off during this stretch of three games in four nights at home (Dallas tonight, Toronto Sunday, Miami Monday). He admitted it was possible, but wouldn’t say either way. – 5:21 PM

Kevin Durant was fined $25,000 for directing obscene language toward a fan. The incident – which was more comedic that testy – happened with :09.4 left in the second quarter of the #Nets’ 113-111 Monday loss to the #Mavericks. #NBA – 5:15 PM

📅 On this day in 2016, the @Golden State Warriors Klay Thompson shot 10-15 from 3P range in a win over the Mavericks, surpassing 1,000 career 3PM in the process.
Thompson reached that mark in just 372 games, third-fastest in NBA history behind Buddy Hield (350) and Stephen Curry (369). pic.twitter.com/jpuu88dAkk – 4:31 PM

The Mavericks have hit 4 game-winning shots in the final 15 seconds of the game this year, the most by any @NBA team this season.
Dallas is also 1 of only 3 teams (MIN, OKC) to record game-winning shots from 3 different players (Dinwiddie, Dončić, Finney-Smith) this season. pic.twitter.com/lDJXgSqqna – 1:51 PM
