After Action Report
In a track meet, the Trail Blazers demolished the Mavericks 127-94. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. Trail Blazers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Mavericks are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Mavericks locker-room rift aren't helping. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
