After Action Report
The Mavericks pulled away from the Spurs 112-94. Mavericks' scorers couldn't be contained. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Mavericks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
