The Dallas Mavericks dropped one of the most disappointing games of the season on Monday night, falling at home to the lowly Brooklyn Nets 113-109. Dallas is hoping to make the Play-In Tournament, and while the Kevin Durant injury news will likely keep the Phoenix Suns from being too competitive down the stretch, this is a BAD loss.

The Dallas Mavericks opened a two-game homestand starting with the Brooklyn Nets on Monday. The Mavericks have been relying on Anthony Davis’s return to help secure wins necessary for the playoffs, with seven games left in the regular season.

The Brooklyn Nets (25-51) were coming off one of their more exciting wins after Saturday's win at the Washington Wizards and they were hoping that they could keep the good times rolling on their road trip.
