After Action Report

The Mavericks blew the doors off the Jazz 118-90. The Mavericks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Jazz · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
