Dallas Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle has called for his side to kick on from their impressive result against the Boston Celtics on Sunday night.
Dirk Nowitzki scored 20 points for the seventh straight game as the Mavericks edged out the Celtics with a 102-91 victory at the TD Garden in Boston.
"Well, there are encouraging signs, but there's no way we can exhale or start feeling too good," Carlisle told reporters.
"It's just, the games are too important and we're working at being a more together team, which we've been the last few games. We just got to continue in that game."
The victory sees the Mavericks sitting in third position in the Southwest Division with a record of 31-21 this season.
