After Action Report
The Mavericks handled the Cavaliers 112-101. The Mavericks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Cavaliers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
