After Action Report
The Mavericks buried the Lakers 128-84. Mavericks' scorers couldn't be contained. Mavericks' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; shots just aren't falling for the Lakers lately. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
