After Action Report
The Warriors squeaked past the Mavericks 142-139 in overtime. The Warriors got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Warriors; Warriors' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
