After Action Report
The Mavericks blew the doors off the Lakers 133-107. The breakneck pace played right into Mavericks' hands. The Mavericks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
