After Action Report
The Kings ran roughshod over the Mavericks 112-90. Kings torched the Mavericks on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the Kings; Kings' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
