After Action Report
The Mavericks outlasted the Celtics 111-104. Mavericks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Mavericks; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Mavericks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
