Dallas at Charlotte

Dallas has been playing well of late but mostly on their home court. They are 9-35 ATS in road games after having won 5 or 6 of their last 7 games over the last 3 seasons. The Mavs are also just 25-47 ATS as a road favorite over the last 3 seasons. Dallas should win this game but Charlotte has not been playing as poorly as their record would currently indicate this season. Okafor is getting better every game (had 18 points and 19 reboundds last game). Charlotte is 5-1 ATS at home off a home loss this season. I think the Mavs will be taking it easy and Charlotte keeps this one close. The Bobcats for two stars.
