After Action Report
The Mavericks rolled past the Lakers 117-94. The Mavericks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Mavericks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; shots just aren't falling for the Lakers lately. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
