After Action Report
The Mavericks squeaked past the Pistons 109-105. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Mavericks came in with something to prove after a loss; Mavericks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Pistons locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
