After Action Report
In a track meet, the Mavericks edged the Bulls 116-107. The tempo dragged the Bulls into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Mavericks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
