After Action Report
The Mavericks squeaked past the Pacers 116-114. Mavericks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers are in a full-on tailspin. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
