After Action Report

The Mavericks blew the doors off the Knicks 136-112. Mavericks' offense had its way with the Knicks. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
