After Action Report

The Mavericks survived the Pacers 97-94. The Mavericks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Mavericks. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
