After Action Report

The Hawks rolled past the Mavericks 125-99. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. Hawks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
