After Action Report

The Kings demolished the Mavericks 130-87. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Kings answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Kings' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Mavericks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
