NEW YORK (NBA.com exclusive) — No Jason Kidd and no Erick Dampier. No problem.
Even without Kidd (personal reasons) and Dampier (knee), the Dallas Mavericks hammered the Knicks, 128-78, at Madison Square Garden and handed New York its worst home loss and second-worst loss in franchise history.
“The last time I had a 50-point win? I don’t think I had a 50-point win. I don’t care if we won by one point. A win is a win,” said Dallas forward Shawn Marion, one of seven Mavericks in double-figures with 15 points.
The loss was so lopsided, Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni spent more time chuckling during his postgame press conference than expressing anger or frustration.
