After Action Report
The Mavericks buried the Pistons 124-99. Mavericks' scorers couldn't be contained. The Mavericks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Pistons bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
