GAME RECAP: Dirk Nowitzki outgunned Kevin Durant and overwhelmed one Thunder defender after another Tuesday, scoring 48 points in the Mavericks' 121-112 win in Game 1 of the Western Conference finals in Dallas. A parade of Oklahoma City players unsuccessfully tried to guard Nowitzki -- including Serge Ibaka, Nick Collison, Thabo Sefolosha, Kendrick Perkins, James Harden and Durant -- and the 7-footer made a record-setting parade to the foul line, shooting a perfect 24-for-24 at the stripe to go along with his 12-for-15 effort from the field.Nowitzki broke the NBA playoff record for free throws made without a miss, previously held by Boston's Paul Pierce with a 21-for-21 game in a 2003 first-round series against Indiana. The Mavericks extended their franchise-record postseason winning streak to seven games and improved to 6-0 at home in the playoffs. Jason Terry (24) and J.J. Barea (21) helped the Dallas bench outscore the Thunder reserves by a 53-22 margin and Jason Kidd delivered 11 assists.Durant scored 40 points and helped the Thunder whittle a 16-point fourth-quarter deficit down to five with 4:18 remaining, but Dallas didn't miss any freebies down the stretch and finished 34-for-36 at the line. Oklahoma City shot its share of free throws (37-for-43) in the whistle-filled contest (55 fouls), with Durant going 18-for-19 and Russell Westbrook 14-for-18.

GAME RECAP: With another fourth-quarter rally and another clutch bucket from Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas finished off Oklahoma City in five games to reach the NBA Finals for the first time since 2006 and just the second time in club history. Nowitzki and Shawn Marion each scored 26 points in the Mavericks' 100-96 win Wednesday, overcoming a 31-point night by Russell Westbrook and erasing a seven-point Thunder lead with less than six minutes to play.The Mavericks, who made up a 15-point deficit in the last five minutes and won Game 4 in overtime Monday in Oklahoma City, finished Game 5 with a 17-6 run. Nowitzki put Dallas ahead for good with a second-chance 3-pointer from the top of the key with 1:14 remaining. Marion followed with a three-point play on a fastbreak dunk to close the deal and set up a Finals clash with Miami or Chicago.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.

GAME RECAP: The Dallas Mavericks jumped out to a 35-12 lead early in the second quarter then held on for dear life as the Oklahoma City Thunder cut that 23-point margin down to just four late in the game. Earlier in the playoffs the Mavs blew a 23-point lead at Portland and went on to lose the game but they held on in OKC to take Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals 93-87. Neither Thunder All-Star Kevin Durant (24 points on 7-for-22 shooting) nor Mavericks All-Star Dirk Nowitzki (18 points on 7-for-21) had particularly good nights.The Thunder were 0-for-16 on 3-pointers, a playoff record for futility, before Russell Westbrook dropped one in from beyond the arc in the last minute. Oklahoma City outscored Dallas 51-41 in the second half but it wasn't enough. Nowitzki and Shawn Marion led the Mavs with 18 points. Jason Kidd and Jason Terry added 13. Center Tyson Chandler came up big with 15 rebounds, six on the offensive end. Westbrook led the Thunder with 30 points and Durant added 24 and pulled down 12 rebounds but no one else in a home uniform scored in double figures.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.
