After Action Report
In Phoenix, the Suns rolled past the Mavericks 130-94. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Suns lately; the Suns bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
