After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks snuck past the Celtics 100-99. Mavericks' scorers couldn't be contained. Mavericks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Celtics' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
