After Action Report

The Mavericks outlasted the Hawks 110-103. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Mavericks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Mavericks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
