After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks rolled past the Rockets 119-87. Mavericks' offense had its way with the Rockets. Mavericks' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
