After Action Report

In Dallas, the Mavericks demolished the Jazz 127-89. Mavericks' offense had its way with the Jazz. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Jazz. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Jazz rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.

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.
  • Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
