After Action Report
The Mavericks survived the Lakers 103-98. The Lakers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Mavericks. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Lakers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
