After Action Report

The Mavericks outlasted the SuperSonics 139-133. Mavericks' offense had its way with the SuperSonics. Second-chance points piled up for the Mavericks; 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.
