NBA ROUNDUP Thursday's game



Spurs 92, Mavericks 90
DALLAS (AP) -- Tony Parker's season-high 30 points included a go-ahead layup with 35 seconds remaining, Michael Finley made three key free throws, as San Antonio remained alone atop the Western Conference. Parker added two free throws with 12 seconds left to make it 92-88, but that almost wasn't enough for the Spurs (12-3), who gave Dallas two more chances after that. Marquis Daniels missed a shot for Dallas, but got the long rebound and threw a wild shot toward the basket, drawing a foul from Brent Barry to get three free throws with 6.1 seconds to go. After Daniels made the first two shots, he missed the third. Tim Duncan got the rebound in a crowd, but was called for traveling while trying to secure the ball with 3.5 seconds remaining. Dirk Nowitzki's potential game-tying shot off the inbound pass was partially blocked by Bruce Bowen and time ran out.
