After Action Report
In a track meet, the Suns held off the Mavericks 119-113. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Suns played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
