After Action Report

The Mavericks ran roughshod over the Heat 149-104. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. The Mavericks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. The Mavericks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
