Dallas Mavericks WiretapHome-Wreckers: Jazz Stun MavsI'll be home for Christmas. Classic song. Bad scheduling. The Jazz for many years have made a habit of pulling a Yuletime upset on the road -- often two or three in the most un-Christmasy arenas -- but Friday's 93-81 shocker in the American Airlines Center may be their most improbable yet.

Dallas was 22-3, one of the best starts in franchise history, and the Jazz had lost four in a row, three of them at home. The Mavs are so content, they practically sing Christmas carols in the huddle; the Jazz have been growling at each other like Christmas shoppers after a day at the mall.
