After Action Report

In New Orleans, the Mavericks rolled past the Hornets 144-114. The tempo dragged the Hornets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Fresh off a statement win, the Mavericks stayed locked in; Hornets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
