After Action Report
The Mavericks pulled away from the Heat 117-104. The Mavericks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Heat · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
