After Action Report
The Mavericks outlasted the Clippers 115-96. The Clippers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Mavericks' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
