The Mavericks snuck past the Bobcats 109-106. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Mavericks came in with something to prove after a loss; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
