After Action Report
The Mavericks survived the Pistons 102-99. The Pistons couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Mavericks. The Mavericks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Mavericks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
