After Action Report
The Mavericks took care of the SuperSonics 105-92. Ugly basketball, but the Mavericks did just enough. The Mavericks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Mavericks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's SuperSonics utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
