After Action Report
The Mavericks held off the Clippers 116-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. The Mavericks looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Clippers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. The Clippers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
