After Action Report
In Dallas, the Trail Blazers snuck past the Mavericks 102-99. Trail Blazers' scorers couldn't be contained. The Mavericks pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Mavericks locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
