WATCH Spurs vs. Mavericks LIVE STREAM online, NBA 2013: Listen to basketball live feed and coverage from Dallas

The San Antonio Spurs vs. the Dallas Mavericks battle it out on the court at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas on Thursday, December 23 at 8:30 p.m. EST. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of the Thursday night basketball game online and catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores.

The Spurs currently rank no. 6 in Marc Stein's 2013 NBA power rankings for ESPN with a 22-7 winning record:

"If the Raps find a way to claw out a win Monday night in San Antonio, hand 'em the Atlantic Division trophy right now. Toronto is on the second half of a back-to-back. The Spurs, beaten by Indy on Dec. 7, haven't lost consecutive home games to East opposition since January... of 2002."

Meanwhile, the Mavericks hold the no. 14 spot with 16 wins and 12 losses:

"Not much has gone right since that signature win at Portland on Dec. 7. Samuel Dalembert is suddenly losing minutes to both DeJuan Blair and Brandan Wright, while the Mavs' porous D, after failing to hold nice leads at Atlanta and Golden State, just let a fat cushion slip at home to Toronto."

The Spurs rank no. 1 in the Western Conferences' Soutwest Division - Dallas, no. 3.
