After Action Report

In Dallas, the Mavericks squeaked past the 76ers 100-97. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Mavericks couldn't shake the cold spell; the 76ers came in with something to prove after a loss. The 76ers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's 76ers utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 76ers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
