After Action Report

The 76ers fended off the Mavericks 110-102. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Mavericks are in a full-on tailspin; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Mavericks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
