After Action Report
The Mavericks snuck past the Rockets 97-93. Every possession went the Mavericks way. Mavericks' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
