After Action Report
The Clippers outlasted the Mavericks 109-93. The Clippers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Clippers bent the defense out of shape from deep; Mavericks' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Whispers of a Mavericks locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
