Doing some searching at halfway point

CHARLOTTE – Sometimes you don’t need us media types to tell you what’s going on. Eddie Jones summed up the last 10 games for the Mavericks in a much tidier fashion.

“The way the season has been going lately, it seems we’re consistent for seven or eight games in what we do and then we have this one game totally throw us off,” he said Tuesday after practice from the bleachers of Brayboy Gym. “And we’ll get it back for a night and then we’ll lose another game. You noticed that?”

The musty old gym on the campus of Johnson C. Smith University in Charlotte served as a fitting backdrop for a team looking to get back to the basics. The Mavs (27-13) are three games removed from their season-high seven-game winning streak.

Since, they’ve sandwiched two disappointed road losses (Sacramento and Washington) around a home victory over Seattle. Dallas’ season hits the halfway point Wednesday night against the Bobcats in the conclusion of a two-game trek.
