After Action Report

The Mavericks snuck past the SuperSonics 115-113. Mavericks' offense had its way with the SuperSonics. The Mavericks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's SuperSonics utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.
