After Action Report
The Mavericks rolled past the Lakers 120-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Lakers. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
