After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Mavericks handled the Lakers 124-111. Mavericks torched the Lakers on the offensive end. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
