SALT LAKE CITY -- Shawn Marion was asked if the Dallas Mavericks' fourth-quarter blowout of the Utah Jazz on Saturday night represented a statement game.

 

Hardly.

 

"If we got a statement game, it's probably when we play the Lakers," Marion said of a March 31 road game in Los Angeles. "We're 1-2 against them right now. They're the defending champions. That's the statement game."

 

Still, Dallas players knew it was important to start their six-game road trip on a positive note, something they did with a 13-0 fourth-quarter run that turned a close contest into a 94-77 rout.

 

Reserve Jason Terry scored five of his game-high 22 points in that run to hand the slumping Jazz their fifth straight loss.

 

The win gave the Mavs their first series sweep of the Jazz since the 2004-2005 season.

 

"To start off the road trip with a win in this building, it builds up your confidence," Terry said. "We've got to keep the momentum, and it happens quick. [sunday] night, we got to get it going."
