After Action Report
The Mavericks squeaked past the Pacers 114-110. Mavericks' offense had its way with the Pacers. The Pacers came in with something to prove after a loss; Pacers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pacers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
