After Action Report

In a track meet, the Mavericks demolished the 76ers 109-86. The tempo dragged the 76ers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Mavericks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; shots just aren't falling for the Mavericks lately. The 76ers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's 76ers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
