After Action Report

The Mavericks demolished the Clippers 121-82. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. The Mavericks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Clippers couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Clippers locker-room rift aren't helping. Clippers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Clippers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Mavericks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
