After Action Report
The Mavericks snuck past the Trail Blazers 105-104. The better team simply showed up tonight. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Mavericks pushed the pace until the other side broke.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
