After Action Report

The Mavericks rolled past the Raptors 116-80. The Mavericks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Mavericks couldn't shake the cold spell; the Mavericks pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Raptors looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Mavericks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.
