After Action Report
The Mavericks squeaked past the Bulls 111-106. Mavericks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Bulls bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
