After Action Report
The Hawks survived the Mavericks 121-117. Hawks torched the Mavericks on the offensive end. The Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep; Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
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.
