After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks downed the Bulls 104-87. The Mavericks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Bulls' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Mavericks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
