After Action Report
The Mavericks blew the doors off the 76ers 116-82. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Mavericks; Mavericks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. 76ers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
