After Action Report
The Mavericks took care of the Trail Blazers 101-90. Ugly basketball, but the Mavericks did just enough. The Mavericks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Mavericks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
