After Action Report

In Dallas, the Mavericks snuck past the Cavaliers 102-100 in overtime. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Cavaliers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Cavaliers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Cavaliers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
