After Action Report
The Mavericks blew the doors off the Pistons 129-89. The Pistons had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Mavericks. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
