After Action Report
The Mavericks blew the doors off the Celtics 132-96. Mavericks' scorers couldn't be contained. Shots just aren't falling for the Celtics lately; Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
