After Action Report
The Mavericks demolished the SuperSonics 122-84. The Mavericks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Mavericks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Mavericks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
