After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks fended off the Kings 103-97. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Mavericks' outside barrage was a constant threat. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
