After Action Report
The Mavericks outlasted the Bobcats 116-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. The Mavericks couldn't shake the cold spell; Mavericks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Bobcats' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bobcats · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
