After Action Report
The Mavericks handled the Spurs 123-110. The breakneck pace played right into Mavericks' hands. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Spurs locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
