After Action Report

The Mavericks outlasted the Hornets 99-90. The better team simply showed up tonight. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Mavericks' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
