After Action Report
The Mavericks rolled past the Jazz 116-96. Mavericks' scorers couldn't be contained. Shots just aren't falling for the Mavericks lately; the Mavericks bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Jazz locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Jazz utilization choices clashed with the team identity. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
