After Action Report
The Mavericks squeaked past the Suns 103-100. Mavericks' offense had its way with the Suns. The Mavericks couldn't shake the cold spell; Mavericks' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Suns looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Suns utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
