After Action Report
The Mavericks buried the Bulls 116-93. Every possession went the Mavericks way. Mavericks' outside barrage was a constant threat; Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
