After Action Report
In a track meet, the Kings rolled past the Mavericks 130-108. The breakneck pace played right into Kings' hands. The Kings played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Kings pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
