After Action Report

In Dallas, the Mavericks survived the Kings 129-125. The tempo dragged the Kings into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Second-chance points piled up for the Mavericks; Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
