After Action Report

In Dallas, the Bobcats buried the Mavericks 111-77. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Bobcats' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; Mavericks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Mavericks locker-room rift aren't helping. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bobcats · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
