After Action Report

The Mavericks upended the Hornets 129-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. The Mavericks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Mavericks pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. An upset for the books.
