After Action Report
In Dallas, the Spurs ran roughshod over the Mavericks 123-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Spurs cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Mavericks lately; Mavericks' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
