After Action Report
The Spurs stunned the Mavericks 107-101. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Mavericks. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. The Spurs rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
