After Action Report

The Mavericks survived the Bulls 114-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Mavericks steamroller is in full effect right now. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Mavericks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
