After Action Report

The Hornets blew the doors off the Mavericks 113-90. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Mavericks' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
