After Action Report
In Washington, the Mavericks blew the doors off the Wizards 120-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. The Mavericks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Mavericks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Wizards utilization choices clashed with the team identity. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
