After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks took care of the Magic 126-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. The Mavericks pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
