After Action Report

In Dallas, the Mavericks fended off the Nets 107-98. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Mavericks came in with something to prove after a loss; the Mavericks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Mavericks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
