After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks rolled past the Nuggets 109-83. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Mavericks' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
