After Action Report

In Golden State, the Mavericks survived the Warriors 108-106. Mavericks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Whispers of a Warriors locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
