After Action Report
The Mavericks held off the Knicks 109-100. Mavericks' offense had its way with the Knicks. The Mavericks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; shots just aren't falling for the Knicks lately. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Mavericks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
