Luck in Favor of Thunder Against Mavericks

Oklahoma City's next game is against I-35 "rival" the Dallas Mavericks. The 34-23 Mavericks would normally look like a tall order for the 13-44 Thunder, but a strange pattern has emerged for the Mavericks this season. Whenever the team wins by a huge margin, the very next game they would lose. The Mavericks' last game was against the Milwaukee Bucks, and the Mavs won 116-96. So while it isn't a sure fired win for the Thunder, they at least have luck on their side Friday night.
