After Action Report
The Mavericks outlasted the Clippers 138-126. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Clippers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
