After Action Report

In Dallas, the Mavericks downed the Lakers 132-113. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. The Mavericks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Mavericks' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
