After Action Report
The Mavericks knocked off the Lakers 111-102. The tempo dragged the Lakers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; fresh off a statement win, the Lakers stayed locked in. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
