After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks demolished the Cavaliers 115-91. Mavericks torched the Cavaliers on the offensive end. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Cavaliers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
