After Action Report
The Mavericks held off the Timberwolves 104-96. Mavericks torched the Timberwolves on the offensive end. The Mavericks bent the defense out of shape from deep; the Timberwolves came in with something to prove after a loss. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
