After Action Report

In Dallas, the Mavericks pulled away from the Bucks 112-93. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Mavericks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; fresh off a statement win, the Mavericks stayed locked in. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Bucks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
