After Action Report
The Mavericks outlasted the Rockets 129-121. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. The Mavericks steamroller is in full effect right now; Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
