The Mavericks took care of the Hornets 117-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. The Mavericks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Mavericks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
