After Action Report
In Dallas, the Kings held off the Mavericks 100-93. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Kings' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Mavericks locker-room rift aren't helping. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
