After Action Report
The Mavericks buried the 76ers 135-88. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the 76ers lately; 76ers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
