After Action Report

The Kings outlasted the Mavericks 127-113. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Kings answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Kings pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
