After Action Report
The Cavaliers blew the doors off the Mavericks 122-90. The Cavaliers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Cavaliers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; shots just aren't falling for the Mavericks lately. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
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.
