Two-team race snapshot:
7) #Pelicans 40-38. Tue vs. Sac; Wed vs. Mem
11) Mavericks 37-41. Sun at Atl; Wed vs. Sac
This is nearly a done deal. NOP only needs to go 2-2 to automatically surpass Dal, or just beat Mem, which would clinch tiebreaker based on division record – 12:37 AM

With Mavericks (37-41) losing tonight, #Pelicans only need two more wins (getting to 42) to wrap up a postseason berth (play-in). But New Orleans can now set its sights higher, closing in on sixth. Pels are off from games until Tuesday; Sunday is another big day on scoreboard – 11:04 PM

Dallas closes within 76-64 at halftime, but obviously it can’t win w/o a semblance of defense.
This is 2nd-most points Mavs have allowed in 1st half this season. Most was 82 at Chicago in Dec. It’s the 10th time Dallas has allowed 69+ in a first half: 0-8 so far in those games. – 8:45 PM

Bad halftime score for the Knicks:

Knicks would not only clinch a playoff spot with a Heat loss, but they need Mavericks to lose to stay out of bottom 10 (Knicks own their pick but it’s top-10 protected). – 8:42 PM
