After Action Report
The Mavericks pulled away from the Lakers 117-104. The Lakers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Lakers locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
