After Action Report
The Suns demolished the Mavericks 118-63. The Suns got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Suns' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Mavericks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
