After Action Report
The Hornets took care of the Mavericks 113-100. Hornets' scorers couldn't be contained. The Mavericks couldn't shake the cold spell; the Mavericks pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Mavericks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
