After Action Report

The Mavericks pulled away from the SuperSonics 114-104. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Mavericks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
