After Action Report
The Mavericks demolished the Hornets 137-117. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. The Mavericks pushed the pace until the other side broke; Hornets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
