Quick start allows Mavericks to cruise

Fort-Worth Star Telegram — By JEFF CAPLAN CHARLOTTE, N.C. — As low as things might have seemed at times for Dallas Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle, never did he endure such despair as his Charlotte counterpart Larry Brown on Tuesday night.The Mavs needed this nice, little romp, a 100-83 blasting of the Bobcats, one of the more non-competitive games from start to finish you’ll ever see.

Fort-Worth Star Telegram — By MIKE CRANSTON CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Dirk Nowitzki scored 32 points, Josh Howard added 21 and the Dallas Mavericks never trailed in a 100-83 rout of the Charlotte Bobcats on Tuesday night, delighting owner Mark Cuban a day after he was charged with insider trading.With Cuban sitting along the baseline and as animated as usual, the Mavericks toyed with the lifeless, undermanned Bobcats in their second straight win.A career-high 21 points from rookie D.J. Augustin was nowhere near enough for Charlotte, which fell behind 15-0 while playing again without top scorer Jason Richardson (knee). The Bob...
