After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks ran roughshod over the Cavaliers 119-78. Mavericks' offense had its way with the Cavaliers. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Mavericks looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
