Mavericks-Warriors Preview

The last time Stephen Curry faced the Mavericks in Oakland, the All-Star put on a show that Golden State Warriors fans will certainly remember and Dallas would love to forget. Now Curry seeks another memorable outing as he attempts to lead the Western Conference-best Warriors to their 24th win in 25 home games Friday night with a sixth straight victory over the Mavericks. After his team fell behind by 22 points early, Curry put together the highest-scoring performance of his career at home by going 10 for 16 from 3-point range in a 128-114 victory over Dallas on Feb. 4. ''He had one of those extra-special nights," Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle said after that meeting.
