After Action Report
The Mavericks edged the Timberwolves 111-105. Mavericks' offense had its way with the Timberwolves. Fresh off a statement win, the Mavericks stayed locked in; the Mavericks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
