After Action Report
The Mavericks demolished the Timberwolves 109-88. The Timberwolves couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Mavericks. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks steamroller is in full effect right now. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Timberwolves rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
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.
- Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
