After Action Report

The Mavericks buried the Magic 131-108. The Magic had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Mavericks lately; Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
