After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Mavericks downed the Lakers 115-102. Mavericks' offense had its way with the Lakers. The Mavericks came in with something to prove after a loss; Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it

- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
