After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks buried the Suns 124-94. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. Mavericks' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Suns are in a full-on tailspin. The Suns looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Suns · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
