After Action Report

In Dallas, the Mavericks downed the Spurs 96-83. Ugly basketball, but the Mavericks did just enough. The Mavericks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; shots just aren't falling for the Mavericks lately. The Spurs looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
