After Action Report

The Bucks outlasted the Mavericks 104-97. The Mavericks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Bucks. Bucks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Bucks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Bucks locker room is humming, and it showed. Bucks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Bucks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bucks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Bucks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
