After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks blew the doors off the Magic 117-75. The Magic had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Mavericks lately; Mavericks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Magic rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Magic · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
