What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
