After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks blew the doors off the Celtics 111-90. Every possession went the Mavericks way. The Mavericks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
